Another expectation is that after the fsck, you won't loose any more
data that you could access by mounting the damaged filesystem. There
are a lot of horror stories out there of people only having a slightly
damaged fs, and after a fsck, they lost a lot more data.

Nice... can you run the same tool against fsck, too?
I did that some time ago, with less evil tool, and got some
interesting results.
(Expectation is that no matter how you corrupt fs, fsck will get it
back to consistent state...)
