That's definitely true. The number of useless merge-commits we
have in our repos is annoying, and has twice made bisect a bit
troublesome for no good reason.

Can you describe a bit more what's "annoying" about them?
Is it the visualization? Or are there more problems; like
the trouble with bisect?

I'm trying to estimate if it's worth teaching _all_
developers rebase or if we should just live with the "useless"
merge-commits.
