Could someone shed some light on exactly what these technical issues
might be?! What are BTRFS biggest technical problems?

That's a question that needs to be directed at the author of the statement.

I think not, and here's why: I am asking the BTRFS developers a general question , with some basis as to why I became curious. The question is simply what (if any) are the biggest technical issues in BTRFS because one must expect that if anyone is going to give me a credible answer it must be the people that hack on BTRFS and understand what they are working on and not the stratis guys. It would surprise me if they knew better than the BTRFS devs.

I think the problem with that question is that it is too general. Duncan's post already highlights several things that could be a significant problem for some user while being non-issue for most. Without more specific problem description, best you can hope for is speculation on things that Btrfs currently does badly.

Well, I still don't agree (apparently I am starting to become difficult). There is a "roadmap" on the BTRFS wiki that describes features implemented and feature planned for example. Naturally people are working on improvements to existing features and prep-work for new features. If some of this work is not moving ahead due to design issues it sounds likely that someone would know about it by now.
