As an observer (though one who has used ZFS for some time, now),
I might suggest that this can at least -seem- like FUD about ZFS
because the "limitations" don't necessarily have anything to do
with ZFS. That is, a situation in which one cannot recover, nor
even effectively troubleshoot, if there is a problem, will be a
"dire" one, regardless of what the problem might be or where its
source might lie.
