That is not entirely true. "Any program" would open a "second, third, etc." (song/document) without affecting original. That's the reality. If anything destructive is being done to the project - warning is usually displayed. That's how most programs that I am aware of function.
I just replied in the other thread, so I won't repeat that in full here - however, from my findings there are very few DAWs that work that way. Most of the ones I tried were only capable of hosting one song/project at a time.

I certainly agree that the undo function is missing some things (which I've created reports for). However, some things physically cannot be undone, such as closing a song or opening a new one without saving.

So, please, ANY keystroke that came IMMEDIATELY before clicking Undo is the command that will be reversed.
I agree. I have created bug reports and forwarded them to the developers, and in the case of being unable to undo a style change I've added that as a priority item.
