I have only looked at btrfs, with a consideration for switching from ZFS,
but it seems to offer the same advantages as ZFS. That is, it makes
things even easier than LVM does. with LVM you can easily resize volumes
and the filesystems on them, but it is still two or three steps, more if
you add RAID into the equation. The modern filesystems do it all at once.
If you need a bigger var, you just tell it so. And it is exactly the same
process for shrinking a volume, something that can be tricky with LVM
because of the need to handle volume and filesystem separately.
