Why you don't want to allow disabling "branches are global and permanent, did you want a bookmark"?

I humbly suggest that this is objectively bad UI design, not just a matter of
personal preference. Asking "do you want to do something else instead?"
every time a branch is created implies a deprecated feature or one which
should rarely be used, not just warning the user about a common
misunderstanding.
