File System Benefits
Potentialy dumb question here, is there any benefit to using btrfs on a non system disk? I'm fairly ignorant on file systems, asfaik btrfs largest benefit is snapshotting, not sure of anyothers.

Well, both SUSE and Fedora use BTRFS as the default file system, RHEL uses XFS, etc.
openSUSE uses BTRFS as the default filesystem for / and if you have any additional disks (for example a separate home) it uses XFS by default. Unless that's changed since the last time I installed.
When I worked through some AutoYaST setups for Leap 15.5 the default disk setup did BTRFS across the line, though that could definitely differ from doing the install interactively.
