Ewww! That alone should disqualify btrfs as a default file system!
Why does a file system depend on the kernel page size? The kernel page size
is an internal implementation detail of the kernel, whereas a file system
ought to be a stable interchange format that is compatible across all
machines.
It is unfortunate that this showstopper was not mentioned when the switch to
btrfs by default was proposed.
