If there was a political will to make BTRFS a first class citizen on
Fedora, the status wouldn't be as it is today.

Btrfs support in Fedora
Btrfs has been available for testing as early as Fedora 11 but
required a special boot parameter to be passed to Anaconda during
installation.
In Fedora 15 it is available without a special boot parameter.

Again, look at this thread
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2015-June/211673.html
"was told there are no plans to make it the default yet."
June 2015. That takes me back to my original reply: want BTRFS, use
SUSE or OpenSUSE.
Fedora devs just drag their feet and come up with excuses as to why
the bugs that are still there are not fixed like other distros did,
for proper BTRFS integration...
