TBH That's because squashing is the quick and dirty option. If I have time, I prefer to rebase and organise the changes into a number of commits each addressing one concern. The only thing that gets removed is bugs and typos which I were introduced on that feature branch, and then fixed again. No need for those to go upstream - it would just add noise.
