How about accessing the disk with a system that doesn't have a new kernel
and can't handle the new file systems?  Would that be a good reason to go
back?  Some systems don't get updated because they aren't broken.  But they
may need access to data that is on a newer system.  I suppose the newer
system could copy the data onto a file system that the older system could
access, but that seems like an unneeded extra step to me.
