I agree that ZFS reports quite a large number of LORs.
FreeBSD without ZFS reports a number of false LORs as well.
So it's the difference in LORs (not their absolute count) that matters.
For this reason it makes sense to report ZFS LORs as well - just to see if a new
one appears after a change.
Personally for me, couple hundreds of extra lines during boot do not pose any
problem or annoyance.  But that's me :-)
