I think people have forgotten what the point of a NAS is. Its for storage. You put files on it and don’t ask it to do much else. You want it to be quick so it can efficiently serve files to other machines. ZFS is a solid choice for this use-case.
It might not be built-in to the kernel, but if it wasn’t for the openZFS licence it probably would have been. And its not like its hard to install it.
I agree that ZFS is a solid choice for that, but so it btrfs, which has basically all of the important features of ZFS, but is significantly easier to use and built into the Kernel.
