    no - because it isn't needed, nor mandated.

    No, it was not. But I was looking at the PR and David Laight proposed
    closing this PR and that's why I asked.

    Hi David,

    I beg to differ. Can you justify such a statement, please?

    I find that, if a user's group membership exceeds a certain small
    arbitrary limit enforced by NFS then they must change their primary
    Unix group. That's normally done with newgrp, or its equivalent.
    Using newgrp is preferred because it has the benefit of having existed
    since at least Version 7.

    Thanks,

    Paul
