In practice, yes, they are clones. But whether it is an issue
depends on what the "issue" is. As I see it, the issue is that
someone wants to make install more complex, and thus lose the gains
Caiman brought to the product. So, I'll stand by my comment, you can
change policies later. -- richard
No, the "issue" is wanting a compress root FS. So if you can't set it
for the first OS BE, and other BEs are clones, then it's still an issue.
Useful tools in the real world are complex. Sorry, but that's reality.
You can have a stupid and easy mode, you can even have it be the
default, but if it's the only mode you've made the product useless for
serious work.
