Mark SPIFFS as deprecated (still an option in firmware, although not selected by default) and use littleFS instead. see esp8266/Arduino#7263 for some good reasons why.

Note that chibiOS 20.3.x also supports EFlash subsystem (EFL) http://www.chibios.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4323&sid=15a7802a3245dccb6fe93526752e422a&start=40

Did this go anywhere? I think one other advantage of LittleFS is that it has directory support if I'm not mistaken?
