If computer file systems had been designed by persons with secretarial
experience, perhaps they`d be less brain-damaged.
Even now it`s an arbitrary limitation against more than one file having the
same file name in a directory, even when there are plenty of practical use
cases for having multiple files with the same name in a directory with
differing modification or creation dates. An intelligent user interface
would notice this plurality and would allow differentiation based on date or
whatever other distinguishing attribute.
