And what about people who like to commit often, because (for example) they 
work on laptop and desktop and use Mercurial to synchronize the data? 

Or they use it to keep the state of where they were? 

It shouldn't ask people to change their ways, because it can adapt. 

And frequent commits keep my workspace clean, so I can always pull in the 
changes from others. 

Or did you rather mean "frequent pushes"? 

Best wishes,
