Because a RAMDISK defeats the purpose of a ZIL, which is to provide a
fast *stable storage* for data being written. If you are using a
RAMDISK, you are not getting any non-volatility guarantees that the ZIL
is supposed to offer. You may as well run without one. (Which will go
fast, but at the expense of data integrity.)
