That seems to me a lot like hubris.I did not know that, thanks for pointing that out.But the whole point of a journaling filesystem is that it does not need a filesystem check and repair utility. So taking that as a negative when it is a positive is completely missing the point. It is all built into the filesystem itself. It is not hubris at this point. It is a design improvement.
What if there is a bug that corrupts the journal? It is hubris to assume that such a bug could never happen.
