>Description:

Handbook uses nonsensical "very unique".  Something is either unique or
not.  Qualifiers are limited to words like "truly".  "Unique" is often
misused in place of the less flashy, but more sensible, "unusual".  In
this case, each filesystem is unique (or none is), but NFS is unusual.

State-Changed-Why:  
There's nothing unique or unusual about NFS.  How about just getting 
rid of that part of the sentence?
