Should we instead add something like --file-system and --data-only, respectively for syncfs and fdatasync and use fsync if no option is specified?
Yes, thanks, that sounds reasonable. I suggest --data rather than --data-only, as fdatasync is allowed to synchronize metadata and "--data-only" implies otherwise.
