Yes I use source control, but there are these periods where things aren't committed, during which you can lose work if some process overwrites files. The same goes for disk failure, unwise use of the rm command, etc. To their credit that a file you are currently editing is overwritten with an old version by their software, but hey at least that software made a copy? Are you joking?
