> XFS doesn't have an fsck either

Oops, actually back in 1995 when XFS was made available, it hadn't any fsck because it supposedly didn't need it. However, they finally made "xfs_repair" available one year later, which while not being called "fsck" proper, still is the same thing.

BTW one thing that xfs_repair did for me was getting back most of the data from an xlv array with a failed drive. Isn't it awesome?
