Is there not some sort of standardized, stringent filesystem test yet? Like Jepsen is for databases? If passed, one can be sure it is reasonably free from bugs? Guess not.

The thing is that filesystems are inherently statful, so the same test might trigger different edge cases depending on the state of the fs.
Databases are for saving state, no?
