We identified the following quality metrics for this algorithm:

  3) Allows rm, rmdir and truncate even when a volume is full.

This is definitely nonsense. You can not rm, rmdir and truncate
when the volume is full. You will need a free space on disk to perform
such operations. Do you know why?

M.T.

Hmm. Can you also overwrite existing data in files when a volume is
full? I guess applications expect that to work..
