I hate the default merge commits. I got quite frustrated when a FOSS project rejected (or didn't come to a conclusion) my proposal for merge commits to also follow the commit formatting guidelines.
The cherry on top is merge commits describing which branch is being merged. But the branch disappears with that merge. I consider it worthless. The branch name is a name of the drafting process. There is no value to it when it lands.
