I am not concerned with its ultimate representation, just as an example
of Apples unconcerned indiffenece to interoperability with others.

What the hell are you talking about?! Copying files between macOS, windows
and linux is just fine regardless of the source and destination. A pdf or
jpeg file is always a pdf or jpeg.

So, you are lying. There are SERIOUS issuess.



Hardly. This an edge case where there's a mix of SMB and AFP shares on a
