Well, from my point of view, "reflog drop", if can be done for both files and reftable without too much hassle, would be a greater addition to the toolset than the value "you can drop while migrating, but you need to remember to pass that option" gives us ;-)

So it really depends on how involved the work to add "drop" thing would be.

Thanks.
