I think folks not losing sleep over this are only in that position because they don’t know it’s happening. Like Brandon said, ignorance is bliss (but it’s a false bliss).
Very few users do the work necessary to detect data loss outside the obvious paths. I agree with Caleb, if we log and give them no means to remediate we are giving them nightmares with no recourse. While failed writes will be a surprise it’s the correct solution because it’s the only one that prevents data loss which we should always strive to get rid of.
