IIRC, the Paragon ntfs3 in-kernel driver is extremely fragile and hasn't been maintained properly since its merge. It's a mildly amusing novelty to see /usr, /bin, Program Files and Windows all in one root, but the novelty wears off real quick as the filesystem is just so brittle.
The author discusses this as a caveat at the end of the post—glad it was at least mentioned.
