So somebody can't just boot a livecd and access your filesystem!
That's good enough reason for me. I, personally, am willing to endure
the drawbacks in the name of research. Someday there won't be
drawbacks.
I am beginning to think that every laptop should have an encrypted
filesystem. If the laptop gets stolen it's no big deal. You only lose
the hardware and not your data to identity thieves (which you have
safely backed up at home, right?). If this were common practice it would
end all of these stories about peoples SSN's and secret government data
being lost with laptops.
