Quite the opposite. If you fast forward merge without squashing, you lose the ability to meaningfully bisect, since only the head of each merge is checked by CI - other commits may not even build

My point was about merging in general. Unless you’re either

Making sure every single commit builds
Squashing and merging, with no merge commit

Then you’re not going to be able to effectively use git bisect.
