Stan, Have you ever heard of the term 'invincible ignorance'? It is a term used in Catholic apologesis to describe the state of unbelievers who simply refuse to accept any argument intended to convert them. I suggest that you come to recognize some invincible ignorance here. Also, you have asserted with some vigor upstream, that any computer person who doesn't have UPS on all his/her systems is somehow not really a real computer person. Personally, I am puzzled about a test of XFS on a system running a serious relational database managed using PostgreSQL that does not have UPS. I infer that there was no UPS because if there were, pulling the plug would not have caused any harm, or, knowing that there was a UPS the testers would have not pulled the plug because it would have been a silly 'test'. Your original post in this thread addressed a quite disfunctional attitude of OP, and IMHO, was correct but somewhat harshly worded. In truth, he simply cannot have everything he wants all at the same time. You should have left it at that, IMHO. I suggest that you try to learn to live with the fact that there is a vast unwashed mass of invincibly ignorant people who call themselves computer experts. Unless you relish this heated controversy, you should limit your recommendation of XFS to shops that take for granted the necessity of having UPS first.
