Agreed, but there have been cases where only one had usable data (Lauda 767 the DFDR was unusable although the CVR was - much of what we know about the actual T/R deployment came from NVM from the event engine FADEC which was rather miraculously intact).
Less of a concern with the newer, more durable recorders, but it can still happen.
