Unable to burn 14.2 Release DVD1 iso image to std DVD disc

growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=4 -Z /dev/cd1=FreeBSD-14.2-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso

Executing 'builtin_dd if=/FreeBSD-14.2-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso of=/dev/pass2
obs=32k seek=0'

:-( /dev/pass2: 2297888 blocks are free, 2356644 to be written!

Searching past bugs this seems to have happened before with other releases
255057, 253483,256412. 

If this is not a bug should there be a corresponding caveat, documentation
warning with regard to the ambiguous statement at
https://www.freebsd.org/where/#choose-image

Choosing an Image

For the FreeBSD installer: formats include DVD (disc1, dvd1), and network
install (bootonly) sized ISO, plus regular and mini USB memory sticks.


... formats include (dvd1) [Dual Layer required] - Single Layer DVD's will only
work with (disc1) and (bootonly) sized ISO ..... etc - or something worded
better - an easy website fix.

The machine in question only boots off physical Drives and does not have the
option of using a flashdrive - ended up using the disc1 iso image as a
workaround.
