AFAIK, nothing I wrote would be expected to have any relationship to transfer
rates. My point was entirely about suitability of /mnt/ for fstab entries.

I don't have a working knowledge of all the deviations from FHS or other standards
that Gene employs, and neither am I familiar with behaviors of DEs I do not use.

When one has /mnt/ in fstab, where would one put a transient manual mount? Another
would need to be created, lest done to /mnt/ on coyote, /mnt/homesde1/'s
filesystem would disappear, no trivial danger in the context of deteriorated short
term memory.
