Git has benefits over Subversion besides the crazy commit graphs. I'm not sure there's really any reason to be using SVN when you could be using Git in the exact same style, and have the benefit of offline access to the repository.

Actually, I'd be interested in hearing about any sort of layers on top of git that make it work like SVN (ie: same commands, same workflow, etc.) It would probably help convince some people to move away from SVN.

such a layer would be difficult to provide in a way that isn't misleading, if the hypothetical subversion expatriate currently uses any functionality involving multiple (SVN) branches.
