If not, then great. Another 30 seconds of my life to waste at will ! :approve:

yes - for something that performs already at 100% reliability for
one minute - do you think a software developer would risk making it perform in
30 seconds and not sure of the reliablity?
for one, backing up an entire set of files is
MUCH FASTER (especially for a small sized amount like a few MBs) than (1) finding which ones have changed, (2) creating a list of that has changed, and (3) backing up from that list
and making sure that it changes those specific files inside the ARCHIVE set...
but yes,
incremental backup has its advantages (as a previous post has mentioned) - for say,
a TERABYTE HDD...
