"standard" was probably not a good term for me to use instead of "preset". All I mean is, you can't do an ext4->Btrfs conversion and get the Btrfs preset the installer offers. You get something really different that not many people will likely have. So if you're the audience who wants a recommended layout by using installer default or guided path offerings, then you probably don't want to end up with something radically different.
