I decided to build my backups and storage spaces mirror on ReFS
I haven't had any issues so far, except the scheduled task "Data integrity check and scan" didn't seem to scrub the drive on the scheduled date, just ran a "integrity check"
Only have my one Windows PC so that's partly why I wanted to use ReFS plus for the auto repair and checksum/integrity streams.
I read this article which is reassuring (someone at the bottom stated the repair functionality is working correctly) Except #3 seems still valid.

ALTHOUGH when I manually ran the "Data Integrity Check and Scan" task it scrubbed the disk initially, but not afterwards on schedule. So I'm thinking of enabling both scheduled tasks to run once every 8 weeks.
Like this:
Integrity Check and Scan - 1st
Jan, Mar, May, July, Sep, Nov
Data Integrity Scan - 1st
Feb, Apr, June, Aug, Oct, Dec
