I just observed a small issue within standard FreeBSD 13 installation:
When chosing Auto (ZFS) by standard default a /usr/home is generated.
Either the installer as bsdconfig has /home as default.
This ain't no big deal.
But it may not be so totally clean, especially for FreeBSD/unixlike newcomers,
because if it's eluded, you slip it, make no changes just stick with all as default, you may end up wondering:
"Huh? Where is the user I just generated?" - there is none.
Because since it's generated there is no /home to place user-directories in - or you have to tell the installer/bsdconfig to use /usr/home.
I just wanted to point it out, and it may be interesting to eventually re-check the default-config-settings for the installation images.
