Are "hard links" important or a nice to have in a filesystem?

I'm trying to assess possible feature compromises for a / based that can be mounted on multiple machines, so any views on the usefulness of hard links with examples would be appreciated.

One such compromise here is merging of changes made from different devices, that will be much harder with hard linking.

How important are hard links to you and why?
