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.
