Just to be clear about the recommendation to use git-debrebase for all
rebases: the reason for that recommendation is to avoid starting the
debrebase too early.

In cases where you haven't both edited the delta queue or performed a
debrebase, `git pull --rebase` won't start the rebase too early, so it's
fine to use it.
