In my mind, in the year 2026, I don't really see the point in using a non-CoW filesystem; it would be nice if the Windows System Restore tool actually worked, and that could be achieved much simpler if there were filesystem-level snapshots.

I don't think this is necessarily fault of NTFS, but Windows filesystem stack.
