Seeing that sentence in the article immediately makes me think the author has poor git practices or even understanding. reflog is useful at times, yes. But it is not what saves beginners from losing work while practicing their rebasing skills. What saves them is that they didn't rebase an important branch. They made a temp branch, pointing at the HEAD of their important branch perhaps, and they screwed up the temp branch. If people would just make this one thing clearer to beginners, it would help a lot of people learn git more easily and with less fear.
