Thanks, Roger. Actually, I have a dim recollection of having set up a thing called 'rnsapshot' to a NAS appliance for a client some years ago. Nothing to do with btrfs filesystems, but IIRC this should be just what I need. Thanks for refreshing my memory.
For many years, I've been using BackInTime (a front end for rsync) to back up my desktop to a flash drive that I've formatted to ext4. The reason for the formatting is that if a file hasn't changed since the last backup, it's represented by a link, which is something VFAT can't do, but can save lots of space if you have some files that rarely change. In fact, you can sometimes end up with a drive with more data stored on it (If you take the numbers given by the drive's Properties as gospel.) than the drive's known capacity.
