Let me put it this way, then:  If you try to boot a system, and the
filesystem within the LVM is stuffed, are you going to be able to do a
rudimentary boot (ala runlevel 1) and fsck it to sort it out?

On a completely non LVM installation, if there was enough of the
filesystem around, you could do that.  I don't recall that it was
possible if your system used LVM.
