Oh of course and this wass from a purely personal POV. Without trying to sound too flippant, my data can go to hell without me losing too much sleep - even if it never has in 10 or so years using MySQL. I keep decent backups and I know what behaviour to expect so personally, I'm fine with it. It's one of those 'educated' leaps of faith I take every day. If my data integrity was so very important, I'd pass the buck to someone who knew their beans and they could find & maintain me a safe db. I'm a competent amateur (hence MySQL), not a DBA :)
