The --verbose flag addresses the following demands:

  1. Providing (some) progress feedback. See issue Progress bar in 2019? #122;
  2. Reporting blocks that cannot be read or written. See issue f3probe "device is damaged" could use more details #119;
  3. Helping to diagnose how some fake drives evade f3probe's algorithm. See issue 2x Scam SSDs that trick f3probe (but not f3write) - avaliable to anyone who wants to use them to improve f3 #247 for an example.
