"Nobody has written a hashing/bit-rot detecting filesystem"

"ZFS is one"

"It's not really because it was written by a team, and because it was made for Solaris which is a different operating system, and there was lots of politics involved with its licensing, and because it was bound to the POSIX file API, and because it does complex volume management as well, and because it happened within a timeline before Sun went out of business, and we even have no idea how ZFS went because every documentation and article which says it's about ZFS might be talking about something else".

uh huh.

If you used it as an example of why it always fails. And it failed because Sun was dysfunctional, then yeah, you could have a usable metaphor.
