Do you really want Backblaze to ignore all the side effects of scanning through the entire contents a badly-designed network filesystem?

What I actually want is not a backup. That is just an artefact of the process.

What i want is restores. The ability to restore anything from ideally any point back in time.

How that is achieved is not my concern.

Obviously Backblaze does not achieve that, today.

You're dodging the question. Wanting to ignore the side effects does not mean they won't affect you.
