Oversights like these always make me wonder if the author is cunning and Cunningham's Law is at play.

Why look very hard for solutions when you can just claim there are no solutions and wait for someone to disprove you?

Have you personally used OSXfuse/sshfs? it really sucks to get working properly and set up. I had it all working on my x86 laptop finally then upgraded to m1 now it's back to being broken again.

I wonder how much Cunningham's Law contributes to flakey search results? I can totally see people using it to game places like Stack Overflow which are far too trigger happy about removing duplicates.
