Of those 3 the most important for me is missing chkdsk/fsck.ntfs. I had
the situation, where Windows XP was not able to boot, so shared
Thunderbird and Firefox data folders on NTFS partition was not accesible
for normal rw operations. If the problems was not big, mounting with
"force" option was enough, but sometimes ntfs-3g didn't like to mount at
all, no matter if "force" was present. IIRC that was when filesystem
checking was required - quite common situation, I think.
As for scarying users with software "based on reverse engineering" -
AFAIK Samba and Wine follow the same principle.
