I am think you are misunderstanding the entire premise of git. There is no "force push to trunk breaks every other developers' working copy." There is no central repo/trunk where all the commits are pushed. You are probably thinking of svn.

In git, your repo is the canonical repo and that is where you work. You work on a new feature and when you are ready, you "git format-patch" and "git send-email" to the community via the mailing list or other developers. A discussion may happen and people may or may not decide to apply the patch to their own repositories, with "git am." This doesn't break every other developers' working copy because they decide how to apply the patches they got in their email. No central repo, no trunk, guaranteed by the d in git dvcs.

Not sure if you’re trolling, but with the benefit of doubt: that isn’t how almost everyone works, though. Almost everyone treats the repository which runs CICD as the central hub repo and everything else is a spoke.

I don't think they are misunderstanding the premise. They're just thinking at a higher level than you are. It's not too hard to imagine a VCS where rebases can't unintentionally overwrite someone else's work. In fact, Git has flags to avoid that! They're just off by default.
