Why oh why are we repeating the mistakes of the last century?
If you seriously want an answer, a user help list is surely a worse than ideal place to ask. Try on yast-devel@opensuse.org . I suspect it's more likely about limited expertise and resources than attributes of the choices YaST offers, and/or the hopes and promises of btrfs. Could well be it's already on FATE. If not, maybe you should put it there.
Using LVM solves some problems, but it also adds complications. YaST would have to add modules to handle LVM and the resizing. Plus rescue ops... I have seen people that installed the system using LVM unawares, then having problems that impeded booting, and having to reformat the disk after asking for help because nobody who understood LVM was available to help the chap. Anybody who is proficient with LVM can set it up if he wishes. As many other things that can be done. But install LVM by default, and with several partitions? No. Keep the default as simple as possible. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
