Except it did provide it in a pro studio session. They could drop in and out, overdub and cut and splice tape if they wanted.
But your original point of not having an undo being liberating is IMHO correct.

If you "fix it in an overdub", then maybe but it makes mixing more difficult. Or you gotta do a bounce which is, once again, second generation.
Of course something being second generation is not the worst thing in the world, but if you bounce a lot, noise and distortion will creep in.
