It is a mistake to say that "modern" DVCs all work this way.
BZR did not.  I never had this problem with BZR.

IIANM that was not an inherent property of BZR but a configuration
choice made by the emacs project at the time of converting to BZR.
BZR made a point of allowing one to choose a highly centralized
workflow.  During emacs' BZR era the project opt'ed to avail itself
of that choice.  GIT offers no such choice.  It proudly offers only
a distributed workflow.
