would that also fix the issue that *way too much* is trimmed all the
time, no matter if it's a thin provisioned vmware disk or a phyiscal
RAID10 with SSD

no way of 315 MB deletes within 2 hours or so on a system with just 485M
used

[root@firewall:~]$  fstrim -av
/boot: 0 B (0 bytes) trimmed on /dev/sda1
/: 315.2 MiB (330522624 bytes) trimmed on /dev/sdb1

[root@firewall:~]$  df
Filesystem     Type  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1      ext4  5.8G  463M  5.4G   8% /
/dev/sda1      ext4  485M   42M  440M   9% /boot
