The mount count fsck is specific to ext2 ( for that matter, it is at
this point, a silly anachronism that many people disable.. iirc it is
disabled by default these days on ubuntu ) so there is no reason to
generalize it to fsck.  I'm reassigning to e2fsprogs so they can
consider adding something to e2fsck but my guess is they will say to
just use tune2fs.
