Why do you think that throwing an error is more useful than doing some nice fallback?
It's... imprecise? Like, if I'm using the 'C-x v' prefix, I expect to work against a VC repository. Having a command like that succeed despite the lack of said repository could give a wrong impression to the user.
Not a big problem, but the cost of implementing a different solution doesn't seem to be high either.
Admittedly, I use diff-backup very rarely (though it does happen from time to time), so I might not understand your usage scenarios well.
