Btrfs has been deprecated in RHEL
Any BtrFS filesystems in /etc/fstab won't mount if/when an RHCK boots that lacks the filesystem driver.
An in-place upgrade from v7 to v8 could easily get hosed.

Does Oracle support Btrfs (as opposed to making it just a tech preview) with the compatible kernel? I don't think so, since it's the same code as RHEL. And if not, hosing in-place upgrades is acceptable. RHEL 7 is supported until 2024.
