Good point. So I'd summarise in terms of three levels of redundancy:

1. You know it's there in principal, but it's not useful.
2. You use it to identify a problem (e.g. CRC) but you can't do
anything about the problem.
3. You use it to correct errors (ECC).

2 and 3 come in degrees depending on how many errors they can deal with
before they stop being useful.
