Now what if block B is a meta-data block?
Metadata is not deduplicated.
Good point but then it depends on a perspective.
What if you you are storing lots of VMDKs?
One corrupted block which is shared among hundreds of VMDKs will affect
all of them.
And it might be a block containing meta-data information within vmdk...
Anyway, green or not, imho if in a given environment turning

basically turn it on.
In other environments it is about risk assessment.
