We have examples in both rc.conf(5) (as shown below) and 
defaults/rc.conf then. To keep a form of congruence why not put all the 
examples in one place, either the manpage or the file?

As someone that's used FreeBSD since 4.0-RELEASE I had to do a less 
/etc/rc.d/routing to figure out how to use the tunables. It was my fault 
that I didn't do a man rc.conf, however, never in my using FreeBSD and 
rc.conf have I needed to look at this manpage. Nor have I ever seen 
there was one. Might I also suggest a reference in defaults/rc.conf to 
the manpage?
