Was super fun to learn about this when restoring the "backup" dumped via pipe in a powershell script.

While the first rule of backup is "do them", the second rule is "test them". If your backups are bad and you only notice it when it's time to restore, you only have yourself to blame.

"The backups fail to restore" is such a common occurrence, it's really scary.
