> backspace is one of the most inconvenient keys Even when I used a more traditional "straight" keyboard I didn't have problems with it... Also, it's usually bigger than character and digit keys, so, really, it's not that hard to press it... > so there is nothing stupid I literally wrote what is stupid about it. Please take a minute to read the post you are replying to. > if only it were somehow possible to create subfolders or slighly change the names and store links in the backup... This is irrelevant. What if you rename the directory where you worked with files that need backups? Even worse, what if you switched two directories. Or deleted and created afresh... There are plenty of cases where renaming of backups will be very confusing / will do something you didn't intend and for zero gain.

It doesn't matter whether you had problems, you just need to understand that it's easy for other people to have them (the fact that it's bigger doesn't change the fact that it's one of the worst) to realize it's not stupid to replace with a more convenient convention that you use elsewhere You literally wrote what is stupid with two factors, I wrote why it's not emphasizing the 2nd, so? The frequency of use alone isn't enough, backspace is used even more frequently, so it's more important, hence, again, not stupid to swap > for zero gain The gain is mentioned right at the top of the post, so that's not zero My response was relevant to the issue your raised with file names, your new what ifs are what's not relevant to that exchange
