NetworkManager is not intended only for mobile devices or notebooks,
because that's a small part of the networking story. Plus, more than
just notebooks have needs for the things that NetworkManager brings to
the table.
If it's useful for you, that's great. If you do not find it useful,
that's also fine, and it can be masked. However, we have put great
effort into NM so that even if it *is* enabled, it can coexist
peacefully with whatever you do on the system outside of NM, and we are
constantly improving this.
We hope that NM can be installed on most systems, and will be there when
required and useful, but will get out of the way when not required
i am fine with that
but i am not fine with the unacceptable attitude of the thread-starter
asking when things get removed which are mature and perfect working
because i have *zero* understanding for the "remove this and that and
replace whatever can be replaced" attitude the last recent years at all
