It's flat out amazing how often people want to complicate git.
My current company, everyone is in love with git flow. I pointed out the person who originally created it literally wrote a blog post explaining why it was designed for very specific needs that most projects don't have, and yet ...
I constantly see people doing presentations on how this is all supposed to work. And why? You can get away with very simple flows.

I think there's an element of "tidiness" to it as well. It's definitely cultural more than technical. More tabs vs spaces rather than static vs. dynamic typing.
