My normal workflow with those tools doesn't need to save anything, and doing so is extra time spent for otherwise quick work. So in effect, needing to save something goes against my training. And unfortunately pgAdmin doesn't have auto-save. When actually developing a query I probably just need to open Notepad++, which does have autosave, and set the Language to SQL. Then copy paste it to pgAdmin to run it.
I think using only positive logic is not really achievable (unless I have mistaken your meaning). The code that tripped me up was this.

Ah ok, I get the normal workflow thing - similar here when tinkering in SSMS or similar, and I've been bitten by a crash doing that too.
I don't think you mistook my meaning on positive logic, although I used the phrase "always try" as sometimes it can be impossible (thanks random APIs!)
