Anyone who uses zfs out of the box in a way substitutable with xfs, shouldn't. So I guess they serve a purpose that way. But that argument doesn't need any numbers at all.

Substitutable how? Like, I'm typing this on a laptop with a single disk with a single zpool, because I want 1. compression, 2. data checksums, 3. to not break (previous experiments with btrfs ended poorly). Obviously I could run xfs, but then I'd miss important features.
