For real - it would be AWESOME if you could install windows on ZFS or btrfs or whatever
You'd still be running Windows though so why bother
While I agree that Linux is generally better, there are some use cases outside of gaming that work better in (or are required to use for one reason or another) Windows.
Oh I definitely agree. But still; when I'm running Windows the filesystem is very low on my list of annoyances.

That has a hell of a lot of disclaimers around reliability, and I’m not seeing anything about it being able to actually host the operating system on the filesystem itself, or any way to roll this into the installer itself
