That's basically the reason I quitted the Audacity team a few years ago after having been part of it for, ugh, 8 years? Something like that, yes. But hey, I'm open to all new information about the project's evolution. So they merged saving and exporting? > I happen to use it on a regular basis.

No, they didn't after all :) You comment is rather irrelevant to the dicussion. Let me explain you why. The controversy is about the fact that GIMP v2.8 doesn't allow to save stuff back directly into the original PNG/JPEG/TIFF/whatever file and only saves to XCF which is project data. In terms of Audacity that would be like complaining that Audacity can open MP3, but cannot save it back directly. Which is exactly what it does: it tells you to export your stuff. That its project file is XML-based is simply not the point. And trust me, Audacity team used to be sweared at for this design decision. With F-word, M-word, and an exciting variety of A-words.
