I found the following statement of my friend is very true: it's possible to 
guess which FreeBSD utility does by only looking at its name, but it's 
impossible for you to do the same thing with illumos. The illumos utilities 
have the most counter-intuitive and misleading names as possible. And there are 
multiple variants of the same utility from both the GNU project and illumos 
native. On FreeBSD, we only have one variant of the utility offered by the base 
system. Simple and consistent.
