That's right.

I feel helpers are good when we are transitioning from an established
Git behavior to a new one. Or when the operation is potentially
dangerous.

But a fast-forward merge is not dangerous, an in fact it's what the vast
majority of people would want.

Even more, I'm now feeling confident I will be able to put a proposal
that allow a simple configuration to fulfill the need of these users
without affecting anyone else negatively.
