Sorry I'm late. I am extremely interested in consistency across the freebsd manual and will definitely test every manual review tagging @manpages, but I don't understand how to find them when that is omitted. Thanks!

31 | Sorry I'm late (no tag @manpages?). Please don't hate me but: This commit puts the apropos result for the ure driver at 86 columns, which wraps on a standard console. How's this: .Nd RealTek RTL8152/RTL8153/RTL8156 USB Ethernet driver The B variants can be omitted from the description for brevity, as they are in the page itself. |

s/are/should be like other ethernet driver manuals/ Sorry, I lost input field. |
Specifying chip variants is very important. Users could check the manual page to see whether the hardware they intend to purchase or already own is supported.
I agree, thus in the linked pull I added them with the others in the body of the description section around line 50s like the chips previously mentioned here.
I was not saying they were unimportant, but rather that the base name of the chip is a sufficient search keyword for the document description. The list of supported hardware is maintained in the body of the description section for all drivers.
