The incomplete information (with losses) from A) doesn't mean BAD design.

This is as a paradox of compression,
A) for lossy compressors like JPEG, MP3, Ogg/Vorbis, MPEG, ...
and B) for lossless data compressors like PNG, GIF, zip, gzip, bzip2,
rar, 7z, ...

You will understand quickly the meaning of both choices.

Sincerely, J.C.Pizarro
