Status: OUT
Silent data loss is the default operational mode: corruption propagates through every data transformation pipeline without detection (compaction copies without CRC validation, hint generation skips integrity checks), and the testing methodology cannot observe durability failures (no crash tests, no fsync verification), meaning data degrades continuously with no feedback signal to operators.
Undetected corruption propagation plus invisible durability bugs equals continuous silent data loss
