It does make sense when there isn't soft updates.  With soft updates, it
is silently ignored.

However, I don't like changing the default.  async gives less robustness
and noatime breaks POSIX conformance.

I use async a lot, but rarely for removable backup media except for the
first use, and noatime almost always, and type a lot of mount commands,
mostly using shell history to retrieve nearly-correct options and then
edit just to toggle ro/rw and async/noasync flags.
