In my experience this can be beneficial when committing and rebasing small and distinct changes.

Agreed. If your commits are reasonably structured, rebasing is far more helpful.

Although these days I usually opt for one ball-of-mud commit while developing the code, which is always fairly trivial to rebase - only one commit, can't have follow-up issues - and then I redo the commit structure from scratch as a part of preparing the code for the benefit of the reviewer.
