With only one LUN you still get error detection which UFS doesn't give
you. You still can use snapshots, clones, quotas, etc. so in general
you still have more features than UFS.

Now when in comes to stability - depends. UFS is for years in use
while ZFS much younger.

More and more people are using ZFS in production and while there're
some corner cases mostly performance related, it works really good.
And I haven't heard of verified data lost due to ZFS. I've been using
ZFS for quite some time (much sooner than it was available in SX) and
I haven't also lost any data.
