As the article states, that wasn't the point for the whole odd exercise.
Within its narrow limits, FFS is a 'robust' (*shudder*) solution for
which a working set of tools for optimization, repair and data recovery
exists. It's a rather well-known design and functionally does everything
an Amiga file system should do. It's tough to state it like that, but
nothing, I repeat, nothing, does exactly what the FFS does. That it's
a performance nightmare, lacks scalability and is rather easy to break,
all this speaks against it, though.

> I have used PFS2 and PFS3 years now and I have never had any loss of data etc.

Congratulations. Consider yourself a very lucky person.
