How is that relevant here? Someone has already made that choice for

Software a user can always change the behavior, our discussion is
about whether those choices are best for newbies?

Don't you think it is easier for an experienced user to turn off auto
mount than a new user to edit fstab?

I'm still wondering why it is a problem for Nishandh when no other
person has this problem.

We are talking about an easy way.
