Again, my data is fine. The problem I'm having is this:

Which says in the first line, in part, "focusing on fault tolerance,
repair and easy administration" and quite frankly this sort of
enduring bug in this file system that's nearly 10 years old now, is
rendered misleading, and possibly dishonest. How do we describe this
file system as focusing on fault tolerance when, in the identical
scenario using mdadm or LVM raid, the user's data is not mishandled
like it is on Btrfs with multiple devices?
I think until these problems are fixed, the Btrfs status page should
describe RAID 1 and 10 as mostly OK, with this problem as the reason
for it not being OK.
I took the liberty of changing the status page...
