Not sure what the multidisk consensus is for btrfs now-a-days but adding/removing devices is trivial, you can do "offline" dedupe, and you can rebalance data if you change the disk config.

As an added bonus it's also in-tree so you don't have to worry about kernel updates breaking things

I think you can also potentially do btrfs+LVM and let LVM manage multi device. Not sure what performance looks like there, though

That's all great but btrfs parity striping is still unusable. How many more decades will it take?
