   I've re-read then and still believe them to be correct.
   Data volumes are first-class citizens, they do not belong to a VM, they are merely attached to it for some period of time.  Therefore if the VM to which they were attached is destroyed, they become free agents.
   
   As stated above, a compromise could be:
   
   > A specific API parameter to try to reattach previously attached data volume has some merit, with a suitable error if the volume(s) aren't available. Although it's only combining two operations:
   > 'Recover VM' then 'attach data volume(s)'
