    No. You can layer ext4 with LVM and LUKS to get a lot of features (but not all) that you get with BTRFS or ZFS. FAT is not suitable for anything other than legacy stuff.

      My point is there are features that you don’t get in EXT that are completely reasonable to use and workflows.

      When someone says just use EXT4, they’re just missing the fact that people may want or need those other features.

      Your response to FAT is exactly my point.
