Hmm ... the core issue remains that deleting everything which is
accessible via some mounted filesystem deletes everything accessible via
this filesystem. The original bbs text claimed

    We weren't dumb enough to leave important partitions mounted. We
    unmounted everything except of root (/).


Apparently, someone's idea of 'important' was somewhat out of sync with
reality. There'd be an issue here if it was impossible to umount
this filesystem or mount it read-only prior to issuing the delete.

That said, Larabel surely acts like a complete duckhead once it gets to
systemd related issues.
