Correct you are! The various incantations used different filters and

I use Debian testing, so it's whatever kernel and btrfs packages that
were in that as of yesterday.

Makes sense. So why did I get the exact same problem when I enabled
the debug-shell? Unless it's also lying to me, doesn't it boot into a
