Libre office does keep a temporary version that allows you to recover, so you're talking crap.

It might very well keep it, but either that behavior wasn't turned on by default or it crashed in way where it wasn't recoverable. I know I lost work.

Doesn't need to be turned on. However it's always possible you mistakenly pressed Esc/Close, didn't read the dialog, or hit a very obscure bug?

However this has worked well for twenty years, so PEBKAC is a reasonable conclusion.
