Yes, but I believe the skipper of a boat is usually a captain rather
than a kernel. So I guess you'd have to ask the captain for his view of
hardlinks vs soft, if you're referring to boat-anchor links.
And it's usually the pimps rather than their users who wear the gaudy,
"decorative" soft links, but I suppose it is for the benefit of the
users to see the bling. But having never been a user, I can't give a
user's perspective. But as a non-user, I've already stated that such
seems gaudy to me.
