Yabbut... Tb's strategy also has some weaknesses.

mbox has some suboptimal features as discussed in numerous articles on 
the 'varieties' which have arisen thru' the years.

compacting is a necessary admin task which has its own potential for 
corrupting.

That doesn't mean that other alternatives don't have their own 
vulnerabilities, but just that it is 'questionable' whether Tb's is 
ideal or optimal.
