Re: Intent To Split: netbase

[paul <paul@cvanet.com>]

Why is it considered "difficult" for individual users adding /sbin and /usr/sbin to their path if they wish to?

I'm sure that most users are competent enough to change their own path, 
and if they are not, they will be soon after they find that they need to.

As a user with no formal computer training, and little experience other 
than GNU/Linux, changing my path was among the earliest of tasks that I 
learned.

Is there some deeper principal of Unix or Linux philosophy being discussed 
here?

Is there something to be gained that is somehow greater than can be 
achieved by changing one's own path?

Is there something I am missing about this debate?
