As I read it, the GP complains about Word auto-saving on top of the OG document. I think intermediate changes should go to an auto-save buffer until you tell the editor to save over the top. For that reason I'm inclined to agree with the GP. Word's behaviour is wrong and the process you describe sounds like a workaround.

Office's auto save feature only works on OneDrive and SharePoint Online, which means every change is versioned. There is no 'overwriting' the OG document. The OP can go back in the history and recover it.
