The idea of editing already-published blog posts is unappealing to me, in case someone bookmarks or saves a link to my article before it was edited. Unless I make it clear what content was edited and when (more work!), the reader might be coming back to something different the second time they visit my page.
It's this fact of the web that forces me to go to The Internet Archive's "Save Page Now" whenever I come across something remotely interesting, and I don't want to be part of the problem!
Before someone mentions that most likely nobody will care about my edited page - it's a matter of principle! For example, I'm sure many of us here take the time to license our toy projects, even though the vast majority of them are effectively unknown to the rest of the world.
