A compressed log file can be implemented with append only writes.
A hash validating defragmenter can be implemented in case the compression tree becomes too lopsided.
(It's a log file, if it's not small enough that you can store two copies, you're logging too much.)
The reader itself has zero need to perform writes, letalone where it can corrupt the binary.
