The way Disk Warrior operates is to rebuild the directory structure
from what's already there.
That is, by definition, an invasive operation.
If your "observations" are finding problems, either the DW code is
flawed or you had an already corrupted system.
Recommending that ppl who are having filesystem errors run DW to fix
them implies they likely have corrupted filesystems. As such the
"repair" filesystem may have corrupt, missing or improperly linked
files.
What about the way DW operates implies it can easily lose or corrupt files?
A files linkage is broken. This file can be lost despite a "repair".
Two files have the same linkages. One, or both files can problematic
after "repair".
A file's linkages are damaged. DW recovers what nodes it finds,
resulting in a corrupt file.
What are you missing here in these implications?
