Did you know they also do not create back ups of files so a failed
save can mean lost work? And that they never save work in progress,
losing work again? Sorry but "Foo throws trash in the street, so it is
right to throw it" is not a valid reason.

Also, some systems default to faster defaults for placed used for temp
files which means you get better speed too, not just the automatic
cleanups.
