Comment:

 Autosave follows the same logic like any text editing program. If you
 start a new document in MS Word, type something then delete it, the
 autosave there will save the empty document. If you've opened an existing
 document the autosave will create new document/revision leaving the old
 one intact until the Save button is clicked.

 That's why there is multi-step undo in TinyMCE like most text editors, so
 if you deleted something by mistake you can press Ctrl-Z (or use the Undo
 button) to get it back.

 Closing this as invalid as part of the problem is caused by a plugin and
 the other part is expected behaviour not just in WordPress but in many
 text editors.
