  | Yes, that is exactly what I meant, which would make sense in the
  | context of the first part I suggested:
  |
  | 	- Take a snapshot without mounting it:
  |
  | 		# snapfs /home /home/.snap/20260718

Except it didn't, there wasn't enough explanation, it might just
have meant first "this is how one simply makes a snapshot" (that one
was clear enough) and second, "this is what you do if you want to make
a snapshot and have it mounted".

If "Mount a snapshot" had been "Mount an existing snapshot" or words
to that effect, it would have been clearer.   That's why I asked which
meaning you intended.
