> Running ZFS at small scale is raising a cow at home for a bucket of raw milk. It's more of a fun curiosity rather than a production level operation.

Well on one hand this is true, but on the other hand...

If you're running more than one disk at home, maybe you're some kind of enthusiast (homelabber?) And willing to put some effort into that. Under this scenario, the same amount of time spent learning zfs yields better results vs lvm/mdadm.
