The file versioning in OpenVMS is really not that powerful. It also led to it's own set of issues, specially in terms of space waste.

OTOH, the point here is that if facilities like this were available, tools like Git -- VCSes -- could be far simpler and easier to use, because a core part of the functionality they add is built into the filesystem. Disk space is less of an issue now. This is a server OS for big systems. Terabytes are cheap. All filesystems have issues.
