That's probably a correct assesment, and not necessarily your fault. ;)

My point was that git shortlog -s groups and adds up the commits
together if the name is the same, but -se can still be used to
distinguish the mbox+tag difference in email. 12 for -s, but 2 and 10
for -se in Laurent's stats above.

If the names differ, even if just by the thing in parens, git shortlog
won't combine them.

I'm not saying either is right or wrong or has any shortcomings, I'm
just saying they're *different* in this regard.
