Oracle control the copyright on (original) ZFS. They own it. They can license it under any terms they wish. They can offer it with their own Linux distro if they wish. But they can’t, or won’t. But they will include btrfs. The only Oracle product that includes ZFS, that I know of, is Solaris. Which has been in “legacy maintenance” state for some decades now. Vote of confidence in the quality of your own product? They have heard of it!
