Ah that's fair. The "Space Rolodex" theme is a bit motion-sickness inducing.
I find that useful because I can navigate to a folder where it used to live, and then flip back until the file I was looking for appears.
Compared to the alternatives: Connected Backup and Carbonite require me to manually enter dates until I find the file, and for a while Carbonite would keep closing the folder tree requiring me to re-expand every branch each time the date changed. However, duplicity requires me to dump the entire log and grep, which is a power user solution one could argue.
I think duplicity wins here because I can grep for the filename. But barfing Mac Rolodex can be helpful if I don't know the filename.
