I care about having a commit log that's useful and easy to scan through, it's not about it being "visually pleasing". Having a dozen "oopsie" commits in the log doesn't make my life any easier down the road, all it does is increase noise in the history.

Again, once something hits `main` or a release/maintenance branch then history gets left the hell alone. But there really is no context to be gained from me fixing stupid things like typos, stripping out printf() debug statements, etc. being in the commit logs before a change gets merged.
