The problem is the raw shitty truth. Not that it isn't hidden, but the mess that it shows.

The underlying reason for this mess is that several popular tools, especially in the systemd and containerization-adjacent space, are built on a bunch of non-standardized userspace hacks (e.g. per-process tmpfs chroot jails) that pollute the mount table of the host system. That is the trainwreck.

I agree. The trainwreck is systemd and Linux in general, but not df and mount.
