"Although APFS does checksum metadata blocks it does not do anything to provide resilience for data blocks. That is a huge omission in a modern filesystem, a point I tried to politely but forcefully make in the File System Lab directly to a responsible engineer."
A curious omission, same with snapshot shipping. You'd think that Apple of all companies would be behind those and tie them into Time Machine.
