I can not figure out what led you to conclude that files are deleted and unrecoverable, ever. Are you using 9front or just reading documents?
Here's a useful one: http://man.9front.org/1/yesterday which has been around for, I guess, nearly 40 years? But no, it's very very hard to lose a file in any version of Plan 9. Going to systems like Linux is very depressing that way. It always feels strange to me to be on any Unix system and realize files can be lost irrevocably.
