> btrfs Encryption Y

btrfs doesn't have a built-in encryption.

> ZFS Encryption Y

I cannot find the discussion right now but I remember reading that they were considering a warning when enabling encryption because it was not really stable and people were running into crashes.

That bug is old, is missing information and hasn't been closed while the reporter say the problem has been solved after an update.

I see it more as an administrative problem than an issue with ZFS encryption.

Anecdote: I've been using ZFS encryption for a looong time and never had any problems.
