I would also prefer a flat history (i.e. using 'rebase' in favor of 'merge'). However we also should have small "do one thing" commits and 'rebase' with a series of commits has major drawbacks. (commits can get inconsistent)

Could you give an example for these rebase drawback you see, 

we use rebase frequently also on patch series, so I would

be interested to learn where you think it doesn't work as you expected.
