The latest DB update just blew away my want/keep/trade counts for over 700 cards!  I will never allow a DB update without backing up immediately prior ever again.

The unstable ordering of PLists means I can't use 'diff' and the idiotic abuse of XML that PList is means it will be an absolute pain to find what I've changed in the last 2 weeks.  The best I can do is restore from my 2-week old backup, try to find all the cards I've added in the past 2 weeks, and forget my modifications to my want and trade lists.

The app makes the backup automatically prior to any database update, and it had done it for 2+ years. Setings -> Tools -> Device Backups :P

Take your FUD elsewhere.
