It's an accident just waiting to happen -- only a matter of time until someone writes too large u-boot-dtb.img and silently corrupts the file system right behind it ;-)
If u-boot-dtb.img grows it will corrupt the env region.
We can detect this situation in build time using CONFIG_BOARD_SIZE_LIMIT.
With filesystem, you can grow until you exhaust the boot partition capacity.
Unrestricted growth isn't a good thing :)
