--------------------------------------
I cannot recall any specific reason, so I am guessing this was considered an
improvement.

> Transaction logs were introduced by CASSANDRA-7066 and are read during
> start-up. In case of file system errors, such as disk corruption, we
> currently log a panic error and leave the sstable files and transaction logs
> as they are; this is to avoid rolling back a transaction (i.e. deleting
> files) by mistake.
> We should instead look at the {{disk_failure_policy}} and refuse to start
> unless the failure policy is {{ignore}}.
> We should also consider stashing files that cannot be read during startup,
> either transaction logs or sstables, by moving them to a dedicated
> sub-folder.
