It's better if such gotchas don't exist. Otherwise you'll have every user get burned by it at least once, and blaming them for not knowing the subtle consequences of using "Save As" instead of "Export As" is not going to help anyone.
- eviks 3y agoThere are plenty of burns on the other side as well with users losing edits and the consequences of copying your file in a file manager with/without some out-of-tree-out-of-sight history are even more subtle. This is an app feature (it doesn't have to be "Export As", it can be a "clean history" toggle in the same "Save As" dialog and a separate command), so not a reason to excise efficient history preservation from the file format
