I hope this explains whats going on. That's why I have a quite large root :-)
Most of us here have probably run through this gamut as some kind of school- of-hard-knocks introduction to btrfs in openSUSE. Perhaps it would be prudent for there to be some introductory documentation on first installation to warn of these and other potential problems?
After this happened to a few people in the last big update I know people were atleast looking at modifying the default root directory size in the installer so people wouldn't keep running into this issue.
Would modifying zypper to gather some stats on btrfs partitions, apply some magic numbers and flash a warning be helpful to avoid this situation? I guess the current "additional n XiB will be used" isn't able to second guess the sophistication of btrfs and interaction with snapper during updates, snagging people.
