I don't think this matters much. If you want btrfs, you'll likely be able to get kernel module from EPEL even if they'll stop shipping it. It's like deprecated and unsupported LXC which could be used just fine and which doesn't have usable replacements.

Where did you hear this? This is news to me. https://linuxcontainers.org/ and https://github.com/lxc/lxc both seem active and supported by Canonical to me. The only deprecated project by them is listed to be CGManager.

LXC is unsupported by RHEL. They chosen Docker as a primary container solution. LXC as project is fine, of course.
