because i don't want bitrot to destroy the thousands of pictures and memories i keep? i keep important personal documents, etc. filesystem corruption is not a feature to me. perhaps i spoke incorrectly but i consider COW to be one of the reasons a filesystem can keep itself in check, the disk write will be transactional and guaranteed if it says successful, correct?
i still plan on using offsite storage services to maintain the physical level of redundancy (house burns down, equipment is stolen, HDs will always die at some point, etc.) but as a user who has had corruption happen many times (FAT32, NTFS, XFS, JFS) it is encouraging to see more options that put emphasis on integrity...
