The actual data I will never ever be able to share. I have ended my time at that particular company but even when I was there I was not permitted to share such data. Or did you mean data from openSUSE and Arch?
Just have a look at their bug trackers.
You can dismiss it as anecdotal, that's fine. You could also try to see why someone would get the view that I hold.
I have no problem with Fedora supporting btrfs, I have a problem with having it as the default option.
This is because my experience tells me that it isn't ready yet. Josef has a different view and that's good, even fine tbh. Disagreement is good, that's how mistakes are avoided.

That said, arguing doesn't do much good now, the decision looks like it has already been made.
