[Discuss] Apple FUD?



I support some Macs in my day job and I was troubleshooting the Mac not
writing to NTFS; then I thought, oh, let me just edit /etc/fstab, right?
Well...apparently, Apple says this is "experimental" and unsupported and
maybe maybe maybe will break something.

That strikes me as weird because /etc/fstab has been around forever. Is
this just FUD, is Apple prone to FUD? Or...have they broken
compatibility with such things as you would see in GNU and BSD?
