Great summary, but I've to add that NTFS is WAY more stable than ext4 when it comes to hardware glitches and/or power failures. ZFS is obviously superior to both but overkill for most people, BTRFS should be a nice middle ground and now even NAS manufacturers like Synology are migrating ext4 into BTRFS.
Well that's good to know because I had some terrible luck with it about a decade ago. Although I don't think I would go back to windows, I just don't need it for work anymore and it's become far too complex.
I've also had pretty bad luck with BTRFS though, although it seems to have improved a lot in the past 3 years that I've been using it.
ZFS would be good but having to rebuild the kernel module is a pain in the ass because when it fails to build you're unbootable (on root). I also don't like how clones are dependant on parents, requires a lot of forethought when you're trying to create a reproducible build on eg Gentoo.
