It also makes bit flip errors a lot more obvious, which is another way of saying harder to ignore, so that can go either way.
Whereas if you image the disk and encrypt the image properly, that gives you all the great confidentially guarantees but no random access.
Ah, that's not true of "full disk encryption". It usually encrypts the disk blocks.
File-based encryption is stronger; you can use different protection classes on different files, you can use authenticated encryption, etc. iOS does it this way and I assume other systems have caught up, but don't know any in particular.
