No, they're not reversed. The current Linux block layer has a 2TB device
limit, so you obviously can't get a bigger filesystem (yet). XFS was
originally developed on Irix, which doesn't have this limitation, and so
can make much larger filesystems.

All of these are correct as stated on the Features page.
