Why have a door? Remove it. You're going to enter anyway, your time is more valuable.

Having some—any—kind of history has saved my ass a lot of work, and time in the process, by simply having either a restore point or earlier reference. Notes that were removed, but helped me remember something relevant or useful at the time, that I couldn't directly remember, but remembered having written at least something about.

Heck, even Office's history in documents have helped for restoring from errors caused by collaboration, or whatever else. And sure, I don't like Microsoft, and a lot of it is their fault for just shitty in-document synchronization, but a lot of it hasn't been too.
