It's not
as if Unix doesn't offer sophisticated versioning systems -
and several flavours of versioning filesystems if you are so
inclined. I do not think it need be an overloading of filenames,
though. Version control has moved on significantly since 1980...
Automatically having multiple versions of a file isn't a substitue
for CVS/mercurial/git/whatever, it just makes it much easier to
recover from those "Oh no!" moments ...
