No reason to make the docs hard to find. If a user is actually reading
the documentation (OMFG), it's easy enough to explain what's dangerous
and why in the docs before telling them how to do it. But yeah, making
it too easy to stripe data across disks with no redundancy is a problem.
There are a lot of people who don't have the time/inclination to learn
why it's a bad idea except in those rare situations where it doesn't
matter if you lose all your data.
