I stand by what I said. If you have a massive disk failure, yes. You are right.
When you have subtle corruption, some of the data and meta data is bad but not all. In that case you can recover (and verify the data if you have the means to do so) t he parts that did not get corrupted. My ZFS experience so far is that it basically said the whole 20GB pool was dead and I seriously doubt all 20GB was corrupted.
