Long time user here... and used to following notation: 1. files written as files, like: /etc/rc.local 2. directories written with or WITHOUT trailing dash when word 'directory' is mentioned within the sentence: /etc, /lib/modules, ... 3. directories written WITH trailing dash when mixed with other files, or when word 'directory' not mentioned in sentence where it is used: /etc/rc.local, /etc/rc.d/, /lib/modules/, /bin/, ...
Main point is here that when there is explicitly noted word 'directory', we could not use trailing dash, since it is clear from the context where it is used.
