12 Yes, just a question of preference.

14 I prefer to specify a subvolid ... this won't lead to side-effects if

34 Yeah, good luck with that. I am quite happy with btrfs so far ... no
35 problems or disadvantages so far.

37 And the hourly snapshots of / and /home on my desktop are really nice
38 to have ;-)
