Or be a proper computer user and have a full drive on its own dedicated bus for swap. There is literally no point in time where a full swap drive is less performant or useful than swap directories or swap files (and swap files are a relic of the 90s when a single application would need gobs of virtual memory.)

Funny watching someone advocate going back to something that sucked when we have far more performant hardware today which makes most of the other stuff wholly irrelevant.
