Hm, is it possible for you to try and reproduce with current master.
Works fine for me:

  "lxc-create -B best" fails on non-btrfs/zfs system

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  As per documentation, the `-B best` option should automatically select

  But apparently it doesn't, at least not in artful's 2.1.0-0ubuntu1:

  Moreover, it creates cruft which is hard to clean up again:

  This can only be cleaned up with `sudo rm -r`.

  autopkgtest-build-lxc uses this option to get performant containers
  out of the box. Arguably `-B best` is a sort of "unbreak my
  containers" option and should always implicitly be used, but is there
  something else that I should do here?

Public bug reported:

As per documentation, the `-B best` option should automatically select
the best backingstore, falling back all the way to dir.

But apparently it doesn't, at least not in artful's 2.1.0-0ubuntu1:
