I rely on this information to check when I last ran a program or when a file was last updated. It's OK now for objects that have their information changed frequently.

Obviously it's too late, now, but could this have been avoided?

Last Used Date - Help

When an object that already exists on the system is
restored, the last used date comes from the object on the
system. If it does not already exist when restored, the
date is blank. Objects that are deleted and recreated
during the restore operation, lose the last used date.
