There is and was no problem. It is just a mechanism to protect the dumb from themselves.

Nobody is able to cloudsave a game, where the progress is less, then the one in the cloud (which you are trying to overwrite).

If this was possible you could clear your local save, cloudsave your new game (0.0% progress) and ultimately lose all your progress. This is not possible.

There are more ways to save and restore your progress btw.
