I've considered this, but there are some considerable drawbacks.  One,
the abandoned versions can be forever lost, even if they may have become
eventually useful for reference or future integration if requirements
change.  Two, this restricts each developer to work from a single
repository file, so (depending on how things are set up) they may not be
able to access their code if their favorite shared terminal in the lab
is occupied one day.

That's right, it's not always possible for people to have their own
computers at their own desks.  I often deal with development on a
segregated network, and within that segregated network people are not
assigned individual computers.
