For much more than 7 years I failed to notice that the US President could pardon a witness otherwise compelled to testify against himself via a plea bargain on other charges. But now that I notice it, it sure nuff makes a ton of difference to me. Those of us with working systems haven't typically in the past gone down every last side road to determine whether somebody had foreclosed our ability to do something. That doesn't mean such abilities don't make a difference, at a later date when the situation has changed. On a different note, I think we're all on the same page, but if anybody says it's possible to boot, with a separate /usr, with /sbin merged into /usr/bin, and without an initramfs, then show me how.
