You're presenting this as if my choice is the weird one, but I'm going to turn this back around on you. Practically no commercial VN outside of a subset of erotic VNs made in the west supports rollback. Even commercial VNs made in Ren'py disable this functionality. So why do you come at the is with the angle that I'm making a bizarre choice when I'm simply following the standard? The lack of a History menu is admittedly an oversight that will be fixed as soon as I can (which means the next version, basically), but apart from that...
That aside, my thought process is this: The current version offers no mid-chapter choices that would justify rollback. The only reason to use such functionality would be if you missed a piece of text, which History will solve (in an industry-standard way, too). The short chapters that can all be replayed easily give you an additional way to catch up on things you might have missed. In fact, the density of the writing and lorebuilding in this game encourages you to revisit previously played chapters to see them in a new light based on information you have learned since the first playthrough. On the flipside, rollback causes a bunch of issues. Worst of all would be if a bug causes it to activate in relation to the card game, because that will fuck your game up in ways that could permanently mess with your persistent save. But even in the story chapters, rollback causes issues with a lot of things, with video sticking out as a particularly sore point.
Rollback causes a lot more issues than it solves in this game. There is a place for it in some types of games, such as Long Live the Princess. But in Supermodel as the game currently works? Nah.
Use Ren'py hacks to enable rollback all you like, but don't tell me I didn't warn you when it fucks up your save.
I'm sorry, but I don't think that's a good idea. I'm not attacking this project as a fetish game, so I'm not really aiming for particular tags. You can assume that the usual suspects (vaginal, anal, cumshots, among others) will be here, but I'm not ready to predict any others just yet. I want the porn scenes to develop naturally during the story, not because I'm working up to something specific. Well, outside of very unusual circumstances, that is.
Do keep in mind that Supermodel isn't a porn-focused game. There is even a button in the preferences to disable the porn completely (intended for YouTube and Twitch streamers, primarily), and the game should still be more than worthwhile to experience in this form. So porn tags aren't really at the top of my list of concerns right now.
I wish I could be a little more helpful on this, but I'm afraid I don't really have a better answer right now.

You can disable the card games in the preferences and play this as a straight VN. As for multiple protagonists, you're looking at this from a porn game perspective where this is almost never handled well. This game is written more like a traditional VN or even novel. The "protagonist" concept carries less weight here than you're used to. Suffice it to say, it shouldn't worry you.Multiple protagonist , Card Battle...
Unless you came into this thread expecting a stroker game. In that case, you're going to be disappointed.

Does it automatically save if I beat the card matches on higher difficulties? I've beaten all four on the lowest difficulty and want to know before I spend time trying to advance through the ranks.
Yes, it saves whenever you finish a match or chapter. It doesn't record your win history (yet), but it will remember what cards you've gained.

What about the Booster Points? How do I gain those? It's not mentioned anywhere that I remember, or can find at the moment
You don't have to worry about those. I realize I should have included a brief intro to what it is when you enter that screen and will keep that in mind for the next update.
Basically, the booster point mechanic is there as a way for you to get something out of a match where you don't get the booster pack you're supposed to. This only happens once you own all cards of a specific rarity. For example, if you own all the rare cards currently in the game, the blue booster pack will no longer drop for you. If you win a match that's supposed to give you this type of booster pack, you then get booster points instead that you can spend on different booster packs, even ones of higher rarity if you repeat this a few times.
This both makes sure you'll always get a reward for winning a match (until you own every single card in the game, at least) and that you can save up for the epic rarity booster packs even if you're unable to beat the difficulties that would award them to you.
So at the beginning of the game, don't worry about this mechanic. It only becomes relevant after you've played a large amount of matches.

I guess it's a sign that I compressed the game well when your "compressed" port is basically the same size as the original.

Well I didn't need to do much as you siad your compression was well done. Images were all compressed and a couple of videos that I thought were kinda large I did compress a bit.I guess it's a sign that I compressed the game well when your "compressed" port is basically the same size as the original.
Video compression was tricky for this project. In general, I compressed slow-moving videos more aggressively than videos with lots of movement since the latter ended up with tons of artifacts if I compressed them too much. I think I found a pretty good middle ground.Well I didn't need to do much as you siad your compression was well done.

It's a linear game. If you get stuck in this one, you should probably give up on video games altogether.
