Combining a small repertoire of git commands and this type of brute-force backup allows people to use git without having to learning all the details of its inner workings (or at least not having to keep that knowledge in everyday short-term memory.) If a small repertoire of git commands covers 95% of what a person needs git for, and recovering from backup covers the remaining 5%, why spend time and effort "git-ifying" that last 5%?
