One point you should consider in planning the schedule is that full backups
thoroughly check the source for changes (using checksum for rsync). So,
even if the reverse-delta for incrementals is reliable, if the change was
not picked up because it did not change metadata (size and time for rsync)
it will be lost.

The checksum has also the added benefit of checking for corruption for
"unchanged" files.
