This is true.  In this particular case, I wanted the boot partition to 
survive if the data disks survived.  Kinda annoying to have the data 
disks survive, but have to rebuild the system because the / or the /boot 
paritions didn't survive. 

With 500GB drives, an extra 200MB partition hardly matters, while it 
will save me a lot of headaches should one or two drives fail (assuming 
it's the right drives, and the data partition is still there).
