It seems Odd that you state how important collaboration is, then your conclusion is that you should use a tool that is extremely Bad at collaboration! It seems like the value of collaborating with each other in the moment is much much much more valuable than whether I can review my 10-year old designs. Also, you're using macOS which is extremely callous as to keeping old versions of programs running - do you really think that a 10-year old version of Sketch or any other macOS program will run on any modern OS? macOS fully deprecates and breaks programs aggressively every release.

"Design is a deeply collaborative process, with each designer standing on the shoulder of giants." I believe that what was meant was collaboration between generations, collaboration of ideas through time. And not so much collaboration of managers keeping tabs on the amount of minutes freelance designers work. In that regard Sketch file format is open and specced (https://github.com/sketch-hq/sketch-file-format https://github.com/sketch-hq/sketch-file-format). It should allow for future generations of OSes and tools to work on top of their files. This is in direct opposition to figma approach, which clearly state: "We store Files in Figma, in our own File Format: .fig This File format is specific to Figma and cannot be opened by any other tool." https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038006274-Files-in-Figma https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038006274-Files-... Once you go Figma there is no coming back.
