Edit: there was a time that this was planned for MacOS. That was a joyous prospect. A single volume manager/filesystem across all UNIX platforms would be wonderful. We had the UNIX wars of the 1990s. Since Linux won, they have been replaced by the filesystem wars.

For what it's worth, I upvoted you. I see no reason for the down votes.

It wouldn't have been a candidate for "the standard UNIX filesystem" even if it was in macOS because SUN made an intentionally GPL-incompatible license for it.

  You make a fair point, but it does not detract from the concept of having a single integrated volume manager and filesystem. Interoperability is most important.
