 Description   

The docs page at https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/fsync/#alternatives-with-journaling stated:

If your mongod has journaling enabled, consider using another method to create a backup of the data set.

This statement is vague and doesn't provide any reasoning nor any positive/negative consequences.
