Absolutely, a non-fast-forward push is anathema for anything other people might

There are many opinions about best practices, but I don't think any of them are
enough better than what we already do to justify a change.

Regardless of what the non-fast-forward-push policy will be (please don't get me
wrong - I'm not trying to meddle into development of policies),

Feel free to meddle. :)

why is deleting and pushing a branch again better than pushing with force?

The effect is the same but it's less convenient, so it discourages people from doing it without considering whether that's really the right thing to do. But I'm flexible on this point.
