And you go on to list what appears to be backup tools.

If I'm setting up backups, reliability of the tool /per se/ is only part of
the story. It may well have worked reliably for someone's intended purpose;
but that purpose may not align with mine. So even if it's "absolutely
reliable", I still want to test it in *my* environment with *my* workload
instead of assuming it's automatically suitable for *my* needs.
