zfs on Linux has not been production ready for decades. People have lost data from it. There's no real reason to allow the default installer to do this.
If you understand the risks, you can do it yourself.

indeed, do you have some references on the data loss? would be good to read actually
I currently think ZFS is quite robust, but who knows never hurts to learn more..

I don't think that's true. Other than with ZFS-native encryption, which I grant has been less reliable, it's been rock solid for a very long time. And I've run >1PB of postgres databases on it professionally, so I feel fairly comfortable in that assertion.

The default Ubuntu installer at least used to support ZFS, which is the point.
