Can't comment on others, but ZFS. I fell in love with FreeBSD + ZFS when I set up a dedicated file server. The ease of use, feature set, integration, and reliability is just lovely. At times, I cannot believe that I'm getting all of it for free from an open source project (Ex-NetApp er, who was amazed by WAFL before touching ZFS).
Having said that, I don't think rebasing to ZoL is a bad idea as long as intentions are right(FreeBSD being considered as equal, and not an after thought. No commit should be allowed if it breaks CI with FreeBSD without exceptions). Having ZFS bridging the Linux and BSD storage realms can be amazing. Also, more open source eyes on a singular OpenZFS project the better.
Here's to a better ZFS future!
