I haven't used Squeak on a Pi, but on my MacBook, a save takes a few seconds, and I've got better things to do than stop working while the save takes place. And the save itself might leave the image in an unstable state.

Well, computers are pretty harsh machines, they only do what you tell them to do, at for the past 44 years I've been using them. And they don't cater to people without a lot of patience. I've never seen a computer that takes into account people with ADHD, even mild cases.
