It wasn't sarcastic, it was serious.  Needing to have special configuration
defeats the purpose of running FreeBSD for me.  I'm busy enough that I don't
have time to deal with everything _now_; adding something else I have to
keep track of for a half-dozen systems is something else I just don't need.

"Cake" remark elided.
