Could you explain why "dd is not safe"?

Tell me if I am wrong, but dd does not know about partition format consistency , files and folders, or checksums. So if you have the choice between dd and rsync, rsync will complain if CRC is wrong. The best would be that the tool would re-read what have been written, as for CD-RW.
