copy options suck

I really hate the copy options, they aren't very clear to a novice and leaves too much room for accidental error

erase than copy
smart update
copy newer files
copy different files

I did a smart update and ended up losing many things, i accidently thought it would update with newer files and leave the present ones.

I believe a true smart-update should be update destination with newer files while leaving all other files untouched. (toss the "make identical" this is only asking for trouble)

how about just one copy button, then in another section define what you want to do in a more specific way ie erase & replace - replace new - copy only etc but make them in very clear wording.

I think SuperDuper needs to be more userfriendly as to prevent accidental erases. Remove all the guesswork of what does what.
