    Rationale: Reserving a percentage of the volume is generally a neither
    useful nor desirable feature for volumes that aren't used as root file
    systems for Linux distributions, since the reserved portion becomes
    unavailable for non-root users. For containers, the general case is to
    use the entire volume for data, without running as root. The case where
    one might want reserved blocks enabled is much rarer.
