That wiki page was copied verbatim from the systemd section, written by |
| 12 |
the author of systemd, after he decided to leverage systemd to force the |
| 13 |
merge on people. |

I'm not even saying it's a bad idea. I'm saying that one dude made the |
| 16 |
decision, and then came up with a bunch of obviously-bullshit reasons |
| 17 |
why we've been doing it wrong all along and should do it his way |
| 18 |
instead. Maybe he's right, but come on: we should be merging /usr for |
| 19 |
compatibility with Oracle Solaris 11? Give me a break. Nonsense like |
| 20 |
that weakens the overall argument. |

I'm just letting Jaco know that his BS detector isn't broken. The |
| 23 |
"predictable network interface names" article and others like it follow |
| 24 |
the same pattern. |
