There's little substitute for science.  Come up with your worst-case  
scenario and test their method.  I bet it won't work, but we might be  
surprised, and learn something about their new kind of unix software.

If it demonstrably doesn't work then can they still insist on it?  If  
so, you're sunk and the best you can hope for is for their backup  
agent not to hose your system.  And that's no way to run a ship.
