However, there are some things that could be done to make it easier for those of us who want to make it easier to install Fedora onto a btrfs filesystem.

My point was that unless and until there is more support for BTRFS by members of the Fedora Project, btrfs cannot be made the default.  That is, IF it makes sense to have it be the default.

That is a good point.  I've been using BTRFS Raid 6 across 6 1TB drives for over a year now with (knock on wood) no issues.  I did this because of the simplicity of setting up RAID under BTRFS and for me at least that is the biggest attraction.  Maybe I'm mistaken, but there almost seemed (and still is, IMO) an active discouragement for people to use this configuration.  You're not going to attract people to use and test something if you simultaneously tell them it is toxic.  Also, you can't jump from don't use it, it isn't safe to ok, let's make it the system default.
