I don't bisect git trees often - but I'd say that at least half the time I have to bisect -mm, I'll hit a busticated bisection point and need to move several one way or another. Fortunately, Andrew does a good job of keeping fixes near their parents, so it's usually not *that* hard to clean up (at least for me - but I recently realized that I had passed the 3-decade mark of breaking and fixing software). Newcomer kernel testers are likely in for a rude awakening if they hit one of those points.
