Drop is a contronym, it means its own opposite, and its use as “disappear” or “appear” extends waaay back. Eg. Usage as in Drop a line or drop a letter go as far as the 1700s.

So just a different line in a long history of drops.

The “poof” still happens, but you have a save state.

Seriously: my notebook is my best tool.
