Correct. The "current and up-to-date" file size is only to be read from
the $DATA attribute itself. Anything else can contain outdated
information (i.e. $FILE_NAME in the $MFT record of the file can contain
zero or some old value and $FILE_NAME in the directory INDX record can
also contain zero or some (perhaps even other) old value).
