Which is why I pointed out that the issue at hand was not regarding the
everything else, but in fact the actual filesystem support.

As far as why the rest is still pending, I was just offering ideas.

A lot of this thread is advocacy as opposed to substantive conversation

the current question".

I lost my ability to invest emotions in either side of huge kernel
debates when the devfs and lvm wars happened.
