According to this:

It claims that BTRFS still have significant technical issues that may
never be resolved.
Could someone shed some light on exactly what these technical issues
might be?! What are BTRFS biggest technical problems?
That's a question that needs to be directed at the author of the statement.
I think not, and here's why: I am asking the BTRFS developers a general
question , with some basis as to why I became curious. The question is
simply what (if any) are the biggest technical issues in BTRFS because
one must expect that if anyone is going to give me a credible answer it
must be the people that hack on BTRFS and understand what they are
working on and not the stratis guys. It would surprise me if they knew
better than the BTRFS devs.
And yes absolutely, I do understand why one would want to direct that to
the author of the statement as this claim is as far as I can tell
completely without basis at all, and we all know that extraordinary
claims require extraordinary evidence right? I do however feel that I
should educate myself a bit on BTRFS to have some sort of basis to work
on before confronting the stratis guys and risk ending up as the middle
man in a potential email flame war.
So again , does BTRFS have any *known* major technical obstacles which
the devs are having a hard time solving? (Duncan already gave the best
answer so far).
PS! I have a tendency to sound a bit aggressive / harsh. I assure you
all that it is not my intent. I am simply trying to get some knowledge
of a filesystem (that interest me a lot before) trying to validate a
"third party" claim.
