Thanks for the link. Those are some very valid points.

Of course, there's some validity to the "composability" point, which is why we use both full-disk encryption and encryption at the filesystem layer. I don't think enabling full-disk encryption is a bad thing. Having full-disk encryption is what allows me not to panic if I leave my laptop in the unlocked back seat of my car; I don't have to worry about what state the filesystem was in, because the whole disk is locked.
