I guess what I take issue with is your use of the word "tendency," which
strongly implies that Moneydance corrupts data quite a bit of the time.

Of course, there's no such thing as a perfect system, and even I have
had to revert to a backup file once or twice in the many years that I've
been using Moneydance.  But those have always been caused by problems
with my system, not with Moneydance.
