Except that inside of Nautilus, we explicitly check for space before doing the move (see nautilus-file-operations.c:verify_destination()) by querying the file system, so that we're sure we have space to complete the move and we don't have to abort midway through. Fundamentally, the filesystem is fubar if it can't tell us whether or not it has free space. We could special case it inside of Nautilus (check specifically for this filesystem and skip the space verification) or GIO (make it so that query_fs_info() always return MAX_UINT64 free space such that no copy/move will ever fail here) or wherever, but it's a very nasty hack, as a billion times to one, if the filesystem returns 0 for free space, it means "I have no space left".
