Hi!

I'm new to Gentoo, but really loving the amount of control it provides (I'm
guessing all Gentoo-users are control freaks?) During my initial install, I
forgot to enable tmpfs -- though it was clearly printed in the manual.

While looking for a solution, I saw countless forum posts from users with
the same "problem". Which makes me wonder..

Why not patch the default config to have these items enabled?

Is it a legacy thing, a way to force users into reading documentation and
becoming more self sufficient, or are we just trying to stay true to the
upstream developers? Maybe something else?

Thanks!
