This is an interesting data point. I will incorporate it. In the meantime, we really need to stay focused on facts and not jump to conclusions. We can evaluate whether you stick with Btrfs, pros/cons. Bugs like this are really slippery. The #1 reason they don't get caught and set free, is tester exhaustion. This is a reasonable outcome. People have better things to do than debug stuff. But it's sometimes a necessary effort because we really are at significant confidence in Btrfs stability equivalent to other file systems, even though we're aware of its fragility in certain bad failure cases like this one. The only way it gets better is to persevere.
