ZFS is in AUR. I wonder what is the reason why it is not moved to the
Arch repos? The zfs-linux package has 250 votes, the zfs-dkms has 137,
and the zfs-linux-lts has 70. I am aware about the possible license
incompatibility between the kernel which uses GPL2 and ZFS which uses
CDDL, however even Debian which is strict about several things such as
what is 'free software', has ZFS in its main repos.

Adding the pre-compiled module isn't possible because of the license incompatibility. Adding zfs-dkms might be an option, but someone would have to maintain it in the repo.
