I know where you’re coming from on this.
I think one thing the architects of this did not really consider is that the act of NOT SAVING is a deliberate action on the part of the user (though obviously one that’s undetectable as such). I open a file, tinker around editing something but I don’t want to keep that change, so I deliberately DON”T SAVE. That’s what’s always worked for decades, but now it doesn’t. If you want to experiment with a change you are unlikely to want to keep, you need to do a duplicate up front. I just don’t think that’s the way many people’s minds think about their workflow.
