Well, that's the one we are comparing to, so forgetting it is a bit of
an oversight.

The user-space FUSE thing does indeed work reasonably well.
It performs horribly badly if you care about things like that, though.
In fact, your own numbers kind of show that:
ntfs/default: 670 tests, 55 failures, 211 skipped, 34783 seconds
ntfs3/default: 664 tests, 67 failures, 206 skipped, 8106 seconds
and that's kind of the point of ntfs3.
