That said, the book is very dense; for me it was just too much the first time I tried to read it. After circling back to it after a while it gets much easier, because you know what parts you really need (which is a common pattern for me at least with everything academic).
ZFS has license issues with Linux, preventing full integration, and Btrfs is 15 years in the making and still doesn't match ZFS in features and stability.
Most Linux distros still use ext4 by default, which is 19 years old, but ext4 is little more than a series of extensions on top of ext2, which is the same age as NTFS.
In all fairness, there are few OS components that are as critical as the filesystem, and many wouldn't touch filesystems that have less than a decade of proven track record in production.
But you must admit that the situation on Linux is quite better then on Windows. Linux has so many FS in main branch. There is a lot of development. BTRFS had a rocky start, but it got better.
Simple? No. SVGs are not simple. If they were simple they weren't so capable.
