Working professionals are, if at all competent to be committing code to a professional code base, entirely capable of writing their own commit messages.

If they can't write the commit message, they can't sufficiently explain in writing the commit they just made to anyone. So, they should not be working professionally on a code base.

If they are capable of writing the commit message with their own understanding in their own words, but they choose not to communicate their understanding in the commit message? Also disqualifying, they should not be working professionally on a code base. Human communication is essential to this work.

That this is a controversial position, is a clear sign of the Slopocalypse.
