If you want an analogy in a single user environment then try: using an editor without undo/redo compared to using and editor that provides full undo/redo.

If you want an analogy in a multiuser environment try: chaotic anarchy compared to almost any other political system (depends how your revision control system works).

    The fact that I can't think of a better one is probably best ignored
