if you’re only looking at headline features, sure. There’s a LOT more to it than just headline features, when a filesystem understands what’s happening on the underlying disks in the pool, it can make MUCH smarter decisions about where and when to read or write data.
The caveat “on Linux” holds though, but that’s because Linux isn’t a serious operating system. ZFS on Solaris has never lost a byte of data by its own causes in the almost 20 years I’ve been running it. I still see monthly’ish data-eating bugs with ZFS-on-Linux, but not usually shared with ZFS-on-FreeBSD
