Since you don't know if LVM has a recovery path how can you imply it doesn't?

I've seen plenty of evidence that tools for LVM recovery are lacking. I see postings from people asking about recovery of damaged LVM volumes and not getting any reasonable answers about how to repair. Or, complexity of dealing with things like duplicate volume group names when physically moving disk drives. Conventional partitioning works just fine for me, and I'm confident that I can handle just about any situation that crops up. I don't need an additional layer of complexity.
