Sorry if I am missing something or repeating what myself or someone else like Michael already said, but in the current doc there is:

       Eventually there will be no more revisions left to bisect, and
you will have been left with the first bad kernel revision in
       "refs/bisect/bad".

If we now just use "refs/worktree/bisect/bad" instead of "refs/bisect/bad", it might break scripts that rely using "refs/bisect/bad".
