Ay way to disable "Auto Save" function ??  

Seems like an ill conceived idea because now any mistake will be automatically saved also ?

I  understand there is Save Project, Checkpoint, Export;   but still seems rather confusing which each one does ?

Wondering if there is a strategy for making backups, or am I completely missing something here  ??

Routinely export your project as an aia file to your PC.
Most OS will create a numbered version when you save the second one.

I can't help with your mistakes :) But you can always undo you blocks back to a working version
or simply upload a previously saved aia file
