There's also:

 c/ do nothing, or

 d/ include the complete code snippet provided by symphonia, but 
 as an ‘out-of-band’ footnote to avoid confusion/blind 
 copy-pasting/distracting the majority of (GNU) users with 
 irrelevant variants.

With a/, the user won't know which options to change, or how. 
They might not understand our ‘useradd’ syntax, and won't have its 
man page installed.

As implied by my reply to Gábor, b/ isn't an option so I've 
snipped it.

I strongly prefer option d/.

GNU's not *NIX! :o)  (Nor is it POSIX.)

Kind regards,
