“this results in programs like df. or mount.”

This implies both tools need to adjust to reality - aka systemd bs - to make it easier for the user. Also known as dumbing down. I concede it is not explicitly requested, but it’s not that much of a reach TBH.

It is provably true that the output of df and mount is exceedingly easy to filter. You don’t even need tools to do it.

I don’t care about AppArmor and other BS because I am not on Linux. Those weren’t part of the discussion anyway. It is about mount and df and the author explicitly called them out for failure to be “easy”.
