yw.  Of course there are all manner of use-cases and constraints, so others 
have different experiences.  Perhaps with the freedom to not use a certain HBA 
vendor things would be somewhat better but in said past life the practice cost 
hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I personally have a low tolerance for fuss, and management / mapping of WAL/DB 
devices still seems like a lot of fuss especially when drives fail or have to 
be replaced for other reasons.

For RBD clusters/pools at least I really enjoy not having to mess with multiple 
devices; I’d rather run colo with SATA SSDs than spinners with NVMe WAL+DB.
