I think it is more like, when you write the first version of fsck you 
don't think about people storing copies of reiserfs on reiserfs, and 
then on the next chance you get you change the disk format.  
Unfortunately, changing disk formats is not done often so there is a lag 
(though now that we have the new plugin infrastructure....).
