You might have said the same thing about ext4 in F<whatever it was>
and yet, here we are, shipping it as default for many releases now, with
little trouble.

Not every big change to Fedora breaks badly, although I can see how some
might get that impression.   ;)

Josef Couldn't say it better:

Let's not be dramatic... I'm pretty sure Fedora Developers are not going to
make the Switch to BTRFS in F16 if it's not ready, that's why I sen't my feedback
and little investigation, in order to help them track down the issues before anything
gets released, that's why we work as community and I'm pretty sure that everything is
gonna be Okey.

P.S. Now I'm in ext4, almost finished reinstalling my system ;)
