Why does CSME keep track of saves?

[Glint]

As I said earlier, and in agreement with Keif's comments, I'll save a game as many times as I wish, cos I ain't gonna put up with losing a couple of hours work through an electrical surge or a PC crash. Maybe it never happens but I aint gonna waste my time.
These reasons make the multiple save alert defunct in my opinion. A good idea originally but, in hindsight, it causes more concern amongst some gamers than it should !
