Thanks for this write-up!

It seems that you've kinda confirmed the points made by the Fossil team by showing that while all of their pain points are addressable, addressing those pain points takes more knowledge and experience compared to Fossil's implemented solutions. Opinionated workflows are best presented up front for beginners. It's no surprise that people with experience and have developed their own workflows already wouldn't value this highly unless they are often charged with helping beginners learn a git workflow.
