Version control is also intended to communicate and coordinate with other developers. Performing large numbers of small commits can interfere with those goals. There are ways to improve that, such as making lots of small commits in a local repository and combining them into fewer larger commits when distributing to other repositories, but they aren't easy.

Undo and backspace are still useful even with version control. Think of snapshots that way.
