using raid 0 for a scratch drive is *very* useful because it can

I'd say: use an OS with a good memory management and let it use
swap partitions[1] as needed --- a good OS will strip over the
partitions (just like RAID0 does), but since it is not a file
system a user can access, you cannot store files there --- hence
no important files can be stored and lost there.

memory management for an operating system and memory management for an
image processing application such as photoshop are different. that's
why photoshop has its own vm system, and as i've said, it will greatly
benefit by putting its scratch files on a fast raid.

Unless you make sweeping claims (usually these are those that
do not state "under normal circumstances" or "usually" or
"with that-and-that kind of load"). Sweeping claims include
corner cases.

most people understand that edge cases are exactly that, and that
'normal circumstances' is implied. since nothing is perfect, there's
always *some* flaw that can be found in anything.

right after you learn what 'straw man argument' means.

It's what you offered, isn't it?

so what do you call your digging for edge cases or coming up with
contrived scenarios just to disprove something?
