I thought about it as well, but then I count'd find any use-case for the other
(current) behavior. When the database can still grow, there is a clear
trade-off between performance and occupied storage. But otherwise, should there
be a trade-off between performance and (non-)functionality? Could you please
think of an example where is it more desirable to return a failure than to
continue trying hard (to find some free space)? Thank you!
