To me, that seems a perfectly rational solution. After all, what
should a Linux user do if the inode table gets corrupted.

The *real* stupidity is:
     NTFS supports case-sensitive (POSIX) file names, but Chkdsk does
     not check file names in case-sensitive mode.

Since this only affects versions up to Win2k, they apparently fixed
chkdsk for XP.
