I typically work with commit chains of at least 5 commits in various states of code review, so I spend at least 60% of my development time editing an old commit in the middle of a rebase -i.

You might find `jj` to help you there: all changesets have stable identifier and their content can be updated at any moment in-place.
TLDR; `jj edit <what_to_edit>; $EDITOR` will update a commit in the middle of the branch
Not an option for me until it supports submodules.
Prior to `jj` my happiest git discovery was https://github.com/ingydotnet/git-subrepo to replace submodules.
