This is what I mean, look at the screenshot.

Our log is as follow:

2016-01-23 09:38:07 full backup 0 complete, 2912565 files, 2912565
bytes, 1 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 1 other)
2016-01-24 01:59:46 incr backup 1 complete, 2905889 files, 2905889
bytes, 0 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 0 other)
2016-01-25 06:28:16 full backup 2 complete, 2915983 files, 2915983
bytes, 13 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 13 other)
2016-01-26 16:12:06 incr backup 3 complete, 2927190 files, 2927190
bytes, 0 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 0 other)
2016-01-27 09:25:01 full backup 4 complete, 2912699 files, 2912699
bytes, 9 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 9 other)

BPC did a full on 2016-01-22 (#0), 2016-01-25 (#2), 2016-01-27 (#4)

After each backup, it removes the older "filled" backup. In my case,
after each incremental (#1, #3) filled backups #0 and #2 was remved.
2 hours ago, a new full was made. This night probably it will do an
incremental, and as think, it will remove the today full.

This is absolutely wrong because i'm missing restore points. I'm
unable to restore from 2016-01-23, 2016-01-25 and tomorrow i will
unable to restore from 2016-01-27

AFAIK, the previous backup must not be totally removed, but just
converted from "filled" to "unfilled" by removing just *common* files
between last and previous one.
