Many people lose sight of the fact that their important data is in their
home directory.

If I lose /bin I can download and reinstall stuff to create it again.

If I lose my home directory, all of my data is gone and I can't just
download it from some random ftp server and reinstall.

Yet /bin is much better protected (from me) than my home directory.
