Knowing that Dependabot did the work should tell you that all builds were green in the GH CI matrix (unless one commits a bump when a red build exists in the matrix, it's happened before).
The alternative is that you have no idea what a dev did to validate an upgrade (unless the commit comment says so). I think that getting this information is better that not and also shows that we are using a potent infrastructure tool as opposed to "it worked on my setup".
