it's great if your commits are smaller and more focused. main issue is it can be harder to solve some diff issues as it requires solving merges at each commit being rebased. so if you have a large feature branch that can be challenging when it starts to diverge a lot (ex: bug fixes on main). though the argument then is more for keeping branches smaller and focused which is a better process imo.
just beware it can be confusing for newer git users and when using shared branches can cause no ff commits.
