If they were going to bother to do the work it would take for the game to autosave every time you attempted a pick pocket and then check all your past saves to see if you have attempted this pick pocket before they would just put in a 1 save file mode and have it auto save on pick pocket attempt. Problem solved. They might legit even do that. As DoS does have 1 save file only modes.
That said I doubt they care in general. This is your game and your world to tell your story in how you want it to be played. Every time I fail a fight and lose should my game be over or do I get to reload a save and try again? Or do I have to pay gold to try again? What about dialogue roll checks? Can I reload to get a better outcome there? Why is failing a pick pocket any different. If I want the bloody item I'm going to take it. It's my lore. When bards sing tales of my epic thieving it wont include all the times I failed to pick pocket a guy. It will be told with how slippery these fingers are!
I'm sorry you seem to really be against others save scumming things. That the rolls that are made should be the final rolls and it should be discouraged to try for another. But my story and my game isn't yours and isn't even Larians to command once it's on my PC. Nor would they want it to be that way. Experience the game the way you want. Set the rules you need for yourself and let every single person enjoy the experience in their own way. It will never affect you. It will never be a hindrance upon your life. And it adds nothing to the overall gameplay to prevent just that.
I really do think there will be a 1 save file mode and it might auto save on all roll checks in the game preventing you from reloading. And that sounds like it's your mode friend.
