Yeah, thanks, I like you, too :-)
Seriously, IMO it's a documentation issue. I had several systems to
patch, with various versions of FreeBSD, and I had to get it done
more or less immediately.
You don't always have the time to think and double-check
about everything. Anticipating the very obvious sloppy mistakes
is a good strategy, IMO. Especially when dealing with security
matters.
