No: it's not just "might need to run fsck". It's data corruption of
unknown parts of the filesystem. Not on a pair of crashes: a single
crash is enough. If the disk was quiescent the damage might be negligible
or non-existant, but in the normal case, I'd be looking at recovery of
newest writes and restore the rest from backups.
