jj is pretty much just safer than Git in terms of the core architecture.

There's several things Git can't undo, such as if you delete a ref (in particular, for commits not observed by `HEAD`), or if you want to determine a global ordering between events from different reflogs: https://github.com/arxanas/git-branchless/wiki/Architecture#...

In contrast, jj snapshots the entire repo after each operation (including the assignment of refs to commits), so the above issues are naturally handled as part of the design. You can check the historical repo states with the operation log: https://jj-vcs.github.io/jj/latest/operation-log/ (That being said, there may be bugs in jj itself.)
