Oh wow, it's good to have some feedback, I do my best to write something explaining what changed, and what would make sense for someone reading that is not me, I guess I have to try harder. I do not agree that the tool makes you lazy, I think it actually forces you to write something, I've seen many other popular repos (like requests) that don't follow any conventions and they have commits like "fixed stuff", "more changes", etc. The prefix on the commit has the benefit that you can parse it and use it for something else, like to generate the semver, this doesn't mean you have to use conventional commits, but any convention. With commitizen you can make your own rules, and make it easy to share with new colleagues, it's better than pointing to a useless confluence lost in space and time, that was my idea at least.
