Well, the issue was if you're using it on a server, and using what a
lot of people still consider the default (the inode fileserver),
apocalyptic dataloss may occur.
I would say that in addition to recommending people use logging with
ufs (or better, zfs!), that we should also push for deprecation of the
inode fileserver ;)
