Thanks for the feedback. File a bug request for btrfs-tools to be included
in the live :o)

Calamares actuallyvalready support it.
The problem is kpmcore, the partition manager which in portage is still
behind. In the SCR devel repo there are -9999 nightly builds that should
come with nvme and btrfs support, available for testing.

Cheers
