Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4664:
-------------------------------------------

I'm pretty sure we've never disallowed that intentionally.  The alternative, 
when you need to do something manually, is sstable2json or otherwise manually 
messing with sstable files.  I'd much rather advise someone to TRUNCATE 
system.hints, than to get his hands dirty with the filesystem, to pick a 
non-hypothetical example.
