Agreed. I have a couple of things to make my life slightly easier. I could never understand what kind of twilight zone stashes go into or remember which stash is which when I had too many of them. So I never use stashes any more, I just make a branch instead. I largely use git add -A, so I can pretend that the index does not exist.
