No, it is not confusing. Other operating systems do not have a vast number of people using daily snapshots in the way our users do, so it is only our users who have this experience. When people play with the daily snapshot type features in other operating systems they find them just as 'confusing', right? So stop declaring it confusing, as that is the wrong word. The word you want to use is COMPLEX. Calling it confusing makes me just want to cease the building of snapshots. After all why would I want to confuse anyone???
