Ask yourself, what are the UUID values of an original btrfs partition and a bit-identical copy of a btrfs partition? Answer: they are identical.
If you remember ReiserFS, any version of it, it had a similar problem. If you created a disk image copy of a ReiserFS inside of another ReiserFS it would get extremely confused.
Even EXT2 had some serious problems if fsck had to run on a drive that contained EXT images. The fsck tool would find data structures that didn't appear to be linked anywhere and it could drop the entire contents of the disk image into /lost+found.
