I agree that you lose the benefit of a direct bisect but this is usually shrugged off with "you can go to the PR and inspect the commits one by one" which, while not ideal, is deemed a good tradeoff if you want your main branch to only contain big commits each laser-focused on one feature or bug.
As I replied to @SQLite above, I am not saying this is the optimal state of affairs -- not at all. But it's what is required everywhere I ever worked for 19.5 years (and similar output was desired when we worked with CVS and Subversion and it was harder to achieve there).
But I'll disagree this is lack of discipline. It's not that at all. It's a compromise between programmers, managers/supervisors, CTOs / directors of engineering, and release engineers. They want a bird's-eye view of the project in the main branch.
