No, you cannot. Review the concept of sparse files from lecture 02: the
file size may not accurately reflect how many blocks a file takes up.

There is no '-X' flag. Be precise.
'-x', '-C' and '-1' all override each other.
If you implement '-C', then that will be the default if output is to a
terminal. If output is not to a terminal, then '-1' will be the
default.
