What's more, I also have another 128MB SINGLE
which I've been using for some years and did not
bother with its DUP/SINGLENESS. And I compared
them all to draw some conclusions. Heh..
That's the story.

Verdict is: DUP/SINGLE is a very serious fun stuff
when used unknowingly. Small btrfs is such a case.
And third party tools (ex: gparted) plays with it.

Let's warn users with some documentation,
together with "A formal small fs" behaviour..
