As for save scumming, it all depends on how you play. If you're going for a true ghost playthrough (no killing/incapacitating anyone)

True ghost is even harder than that - no detection, no incaps, no kills. Managing no detection is incredibly difficult on some of the missions so that's definitely one I wouldn't want to try without save scumming.

If your self-imposed rules are more flexible and you're okay with getting into fights, then relying on the autosaves alone is fine.

My own rules are pretty flexible about everything except for saving
