They're just really making sure. You're right, some of it is redundant.
It's just flatly amazing to me how much hard labor people will happily endure while never addressing the real, easily fixed, bug; namely that NFS uses unauthenticated RPC by default. Not shipping kerberos (or the functional equivalent) as a fully integrated part of one's OS is a lot like shipping a cpu whose fdiv instruction doesn't work. Just my humble opinion.
