Why would Btrfs have a big(ger) future than Bcachefs when the latter seems to have the same functionality and less 'historical baggage'†? I remember when Btrfs was initially released (I was doing Solaris sysadmining, and it was billed as "ZFS for Linux"), and yet here we are all these years later and it still seems to be 'meh'. † E.g., RAID5+ that's less likely to eat data: * https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/btrfs-man5.html#raid5... * https://bcachefs.org/ErasureCoding/ / https://github.com/koverstreet/bcachefs/issues/657
