Well, there is at least a couple of failure scenarios where
copies>1 are good:
1) A single-disk pool, as in a laptop. Noise on the bus,
media degradation, or any other reason to misread or
miswrite a block can result in a failed pool.
How does mac/win/lin handle this situation? (Not counting btrfs.)
Is this a trick question? :)

Such noise might result in a temporarily faulted pool (blue screen of death)
that is fully recovered after reboot. Meanwhile you're always paying for it in
terms of performance, and it's all solvable via pool redundancy.
