That's how subvolumes work; not just on btrfs, but on zfs as well. The non-footgun way is to have several subvolumes (@root, @boot, @home for btrfs, rpool/ROOT

That's how subvolumes work; not just on btrfs, but on zfs as well.
The non-footgun way is to have several subvolumes (@root, @boot, @home for btrfs, rpool/ROOT/system_instance and rpool/USERDATA for zfs), and nothing in else in the volume itself. Then, you wipe the system subvolume and create a new one, with new system. Or just keep the old system subvolume and create a new one.
