It's just a convention. Filesystems to be exported live under /export, and are frequently automounted under /net/{hostname} or /home/{hostname} depending on their intended purpose. You don't have to arrange things like that, just as you don't have to install ports under /usr/local. ie. you'ld have to have a pretty good reason to go against the convention. In fact, given that FreeBSD doesn't seem to have a native convention on how exported filesystems are laid out (no mention in hier(7), no default /etc/exports file), it would make sense to adopt the Solaris/Linux style = where feasible. Mount points etc. aren't going to work exactly the same due to= Solaris/Linux preferentially using autofs and FreeBSD using amd(8) (yes, = I know there has been some progress on autofs under FreeBSD, but it's not 1= 00% yet[*]), but from a user perspective it should all work the same.
