UFS2 with 4TB disk _totally absurd_

2TB filesystems are _not large_. FreeBSD should expect 2-4TB filesystems
to be in common use in peoples _living rooms_, never mind in the office or
datacenter.
So 5.x was a total wash in terms of UFS2 and snapshots, largefiles, etc.,
6.0 still doesn't have working filesystem quotas or snapshots, and it
seems, doesn't support modern (circa 2004) hard drives.
Maybe a little less time working on FreeBSD 23.0 ... ?
