One thing I'd like to see addressed.

Back in the RHEL7.4 days, btrfs was explicitly deprecated:

"The Btrfs file system has been in Technology Preview state since the 
initial release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat will not be 
moving Btrfs to a fully supported feature and it will be removed in a 
future major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. 

"The Btrfs file system did receive numerous updates from the upstream in 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 and will remain available in the Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux 7 series. However, this is the last planned update to 
this feature.

So, why did SuSE consider BTRFS "ready" while RedHat did not, to the 
point of removing support for it?  And what has changed since then?
