Those caveats/issues are definitely worrying. I don't think I have enough expertise to comment on them, unfortunately.
The wiki also says that native encryption is "unofficially discouraged by the community" and I'd be interested in learning more about that, but there's no source for that statement.
If you're interested in ZFS, I think it's definitely worth trying out on a secondary machine. There's a lot to learn, but I've found it worthwhile.
I've been using ZFS for the past 3 years without any major issues. For my server, all my media is stored on a group of HDDs in an external HDD enclosure using RAIDz2. I currently use Proxmox, since I wanted a stable OS and it has support for ZFS baked-in.
My personal laptop has root on ZFS, running Arch. ZFS is a kernel module installed separately in this case. Since Arch is a rolling distro and I like messing around with it, I appreciate running a FS with snapshots where I can easily rollback when something breaks. Plus, ZFS supports native encryption!
I tried others, stayed with Tidal for a while, but unfortunately had to come back to Spotify. The playlists are just much better and you have access to tons of good user-created playlists.
Awesome! Just updated without issues, I only had to make one tiny change to my config.
That is a lie! My Brahmin friends have told me that only racists would claim otherwise.

They're different, but according to its readme, Cromite includes "security enhancement patches from GrapheneOS project", so I assume it contains Vanadium's changes as well as other improvements.
Posted this above, but it might interest you as an alternative to Vanadium:
Bromite hasn't been updated in a while, so you should at least switch to Cromite if you're not switching to Mull. It's a fork by a previous Bromite contributor and includes some improvements, like a bottom toolbar and adblock plus (so normal block lists, not Bromite's less customizable ad blocker.

I feel the same way. $46 (Canadian) a year ago (August 1) for Sync Ultra. Got less than a year out of it...
Hurts even more that the new ultra has the same name as the old one. It gave me false hope that my old subscription would still be valid.
I found a GitHub issue suggesting that they warn users about the risks associated with native encryption, it has helped me understand the situation better: https://github.com/openzfs/openzfs-docs/issues/494
