[X3D-Public] Why use document technology for building a 3D world?

[Dave A]

If people don't see any reason to save worlds, then they don't have to. 
I'm not gonna force them to.
On the other hand, I make a living doing just that for people who DO 
need to save the world, so to speak. Very important to know and be able 
to retrieve the state of a system. How you go about doing that is up to 
you. If a document-type file suits your needs then fine. Many documents 
allow saving of revision information. What's the diff? Who is this 
person to judge?
