Even if those two modes can be argued to be similar in some sense.
Yes, I know. Emacs unboxes with unpleasant defaults. I was pleasantly surprised TAB expands and collapses the bullet point in Outline View mode. If memory serves. I used to have to look up how to do that. What key to use. Maybe the TAB behavior was pulled from Org mode to Outline mode. Having the same key to expand, collapse the bullet point headline is the "Right thing to do(R)[TM]".
Perhaps, there could be configuration infrastructure policy overlay for having bullet points expand, collapse with the same key. I would use that to page up/down View mode with B and SPC everywhere.
possible expand, collapse keybindings for bullet point headline * TAB * RET * SPC CORRECTION
steps to reproduce in Git-Log-View mode * open emacs by 'emacs -Q' * goto emacs source directory
* apply C-x v L runs the command vc-print-root-log
* goto the first line with a bullet point * goto A and perform TAB, RET
