Maybe. But they explicitly mention: “this results in programs like df. or mount.”

If you want to call out design shit then just call it what it is: systemd. Leave df out of it, the poor fellow. Mount also has nothing to do with it.

Well, someone needs to stand up for those poor applications, might as well be you ;)

I still think it means you are missing the overall point of the author thoughts by focussing so heavily on them using df as an example.
