On the one hand, thank you! It never even occurred to me that they kept it but hid it.
On the other hand, I just tried it, and it doesn't actually help at all -- it actually makes things worse. Because it's still autosaving the whole time. "Save As..." saves my current file to a new file... but the old file still has all the changes until that point, despite never having manually saved.
So I still have to go through the whole step of reverting the changes in the first file. Only with "Save As..." it's actually harder, because the first file is no longer open. I have to go find it and open it and revert.
