Joerg just posted a lengthy answer to the fsck question:

Good stuff.  I see two answers to "nobody complained about lying hardware 
before ZFS".

One:  The user has never tried another filesystem that tests for end-to-end 
data integrity, so ZFS notices more problems, and sooner.

Two: If you lost data with another filesystem, you may have overlooked it and 
blamed the OS or the application, instead of the inexpensive hardware.
