Why?

Why?

In case the site/pc/etc. crashes?
Modern footnotes can only be added in the SH editor, so you can't simply pre-format it in your doc file. Likewise, I only add chapter illustrations or references in the SH editor as the last edit. And the site did crash me as I hit the update button.

Personally I just copy and paste everything in, and from there adjusting the formatting only takes a few minutes at most.

My only problem with an autosave is that it might save when you delete something important... But that's what undo is for, right? *nervous laughter*

Yes, it would.

Especially when people have sketchy internet connections.

I felt their frustration a few days ago when my computer was getting some problems and the wifi randomly shut off and would refuse to connect unless I restarted my entire system.

But, well... there's always the solution of pulling up google drive, opening google docs, and writing there. If you connect your Drive to your device, you can work offline.

It doesn’t save you from being stupid and accidentally closing the tab as you format your chapter…
