I don't think I've ever used it like that, and probably wouldn't. At
least not unless the underlying devices were RAID1 or similar.
Indeed it is highly recommended to use some redundancy (external with
physical or software mdadm RAID, or internal within LVM) when spanning
LVM over multiple disks.
Spanning devices seems to me to be more or less the same as RAID0
(striping), and just as risky
The default is to concatenate PVs like RAID "linear" (JBOD), although
LVM can do striping too.
