I think that you (like me) prefer to use commits in places where many others prefer to stash. Personally I think the stash command is too primitive to bother with for all things except maybe an push+pop that happens within half a minute. Anything more and I risk forgetting about it. A WIP commit however is just there, on the branch, for me to deal with however I want later.

I don’t want to fiddle with dropping the stash one too many times, forgetting what they were about and so on. Merge conflicts because I didn’t pop before resuming..

It’s just a mostly useless additional “thing”.
