Completely and utterly wrong.

Save as has ALWAYS created a new document and further edits applied to
the NEW document, not the old one.

I assume then you never use Print either. Or Cute, Paste, Find, Save, or
anything in any menu other than File->Quit.

Oh wait, you can't use File Quit either, as the Finder doe not have that
option.

What an idiotic statement.

Utter nonsense. They are not identical in any way whatsoever. You might
as well say that save and print and share are all identical.

That is certainly true.
