Without reliable restores.

What part of "with no backups" didn't you understand?

:-)

Perhaps the part where "having backups which are unreliable/unrestorable" is _more_ dangerous than "being known to have no backups", because the former provides a false sense of security?
"Good companies test their backups. Great companies test their restores."

Learned that lesson the hard way a few decades ago.
