-Fist of all I just like configuring everything myself (maybe not a very good reason)
-Sometimes users know better if their files are very important or not. When they aren't that important, it's sometimes better to make full backups not too often. When they are very important, it's sometimes better to make full backups very often.
-Sometimes to many full backups take to much space. If you backup your files somewhere on the internet, your space is often limited.
 
Maybe we should make a dialog with advanced options, and change 'automatic' to 'automatic (recommended)'. So users will only change it if they know what they are doing.

PS: I'll take a look at the problems
