It turns out there are also clever ways to remedy the chicken-and-egg
problem of doing a native ZFS-only installation with a distro that has
no built-in ZFS, that are easy to find if you look around, e.g.,
https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Getting%20Started/Debian/Debian%20Buster%20Root%20on%20ZFS.html
I'll admit I was lazy, in asking you without bothering to look.
