If you have to add it, that means btrfs isn't detecting the ssd, First time I mounted the freshly created filesystem, it actually added the "ssd" option by itself.

That makes an excellent point. 2 copies of the same binary data in different filesystem sectors, process thru LUKS, will create entirely different binary ciphertext, so for sure both metadata copies will always be different and cannot be "deduped" by SSD firmware...
