I've seen people wondering if ZFS was a scam because the claims just
seemed too good to be true.  Given that ZFS *is* really great, I don't
think it would hurt to prominently advertise limitations like this one
it would probably benefit credibility considerably, and it's a real
consideration for anyone who's doing RAID-Z.
