Wastes tonnes of space (space allocation+journalling) and i'd rather use FAT, atleast it is compatible with other operating systems. Apple should stick to fancy buttons and animation thanks.

Hindsight is 20:20. HFS was release in 1985!

They are hiring a FS guru so if you know any good ones try to get them to apply and make the next one better.
