Hard disagree. I've found this way of working benefits both me and my colleagues.
I'm able to work on long lived branches without getting into conflict hell because when I rebase, I'm only dealing with small conflicts.
I'm able to slim down initially large changes into smaller total diffs because I realised one change wasn't actually necessary, but only because I took the time to reflect on the code and separate the concerns
Being able to separate your code into smaller units is a really great tool, and helps you really understand your own code changes in a new light. Amusingly despite me often rewriting the same code 3 times, I feel like I've never been more productive (and no, I don't use any LLMs)
