Its a neccessary part of RAID because duplicating raid functionality in every 
file system would be incredibly inefficient and lead to a lot of code 
duplication and bug. Its also neccessary because the raid functionality may
not even be on the same host as the file system.

You need to learn the difference between a design flaw and pragmatic design.
