There's a rule in programming: how many people are bothered often by a rare option? Adding options, selecting, confirming—it's a bit like the Mobile Sheets disease: too many confirmations, not enough simple, immediate things.
And tablet crash is the bad exemple : tablet restore everything

You may consider a catastrophic crash rare, but before I retired I spent 30 years in IT and I can promise you that I saw way too many catastrophic crashes and they were ALWAYS a disaster, especially when the client had inadequate, or no backup - anything that can make system recovery easier is well worth it. Total system backups are awesome!
Except mine : 45 years (from Cobol, T/Pascal/l4G adding first windowing app, etc...)
And I do not confuse Database with Librairy
And total crash is the most simple situation, especially for I-tabs or anny orther x-Tabs.
