I'm honestly baffled by this. You're a proponent of dealing with chores as you encounter them during development rather than putting them off til later (great! I love this!), but also when that PR lands you want it all squashed down into a single commit, which presumably will have a message like "Implemented Important Feature, also did a bunch of unrelated work". That sort of workflow is ideal for making sure you've got a set of isolated commits each looking at a single subject so that when someone is reading through the history later they can quickly see where something was introduced or why, and jj is perfect for doing that because it makes crafting those commits so much easier.
