This 100%. I hate getting added to a PR for review with testing commits in the history, and I'm expected to clean those up before merging into main.
I feel like squash and merge on GitHub/GitLab is nicer for that anyway though, it makes the main branch so much cleaner automatically
If you're using "trunk-based development" (everything is a PR branch or in main), this works great.
If you're using GitFlow, it can make PRs between the major prod/dev/staging branches super messy. It would be nice if GitHub would let you define which merge strategies are allowed per-branch, but that's not a thing (AFAIK). So you're probably better off not squashing in this situation.
