Unlike proprietary systems, on postmarketOS (and any Linux system), nmcli
allows the following scenario.

Morris device > Mark's device > WiFi Router > Cables > ISP.

Morris is connected to Mark's device.
Mark is connected to WiFi and has executed nmcli as show above.

Result:
Morris is connected to the internet via Mark's device.

Note:
To Morris, Mark's device behaves like a WiFi dongle which appears to him as USB
Ethernet.

This is very useful.
