Are you being obtuse? You should be able to recreate a few minutes, or 
even an hour's work, with tears and anger, but it can be done. Replacing 
data that is years old is much different. Replacing work you've been 
working on for months or days is much different. Losing less than a day 
of work...hell, a power outage can do that. Many things can go wrong to 
do that. Keep a bloody backup of data and information that's important 
so you don't lose everything.

How do you fail to see that as relevant?
