There are tons of e.g. 8TB SSDs or 20TB HDDs, etc. but they don’t always have exactly the same size when looked at available bytes. So if say a few years from now such a drive dies, and needs to be replaced, there may no longer be the exact same model on the market, instead there might be other 8TB…

Safetey margins for vdev sizes?
