 have fun when the filesystem itself needs to be accessed outside of the boot environment because 

for some reason, these BSD (and thus solaris) unixes aren't up to speed on making disk mounting and fixing easy, you know, mount... umount... fsck...

these tools won't help you with zfs and ufs

its probably the biggest reason why nobody uses BSD or solaris anymore

it's not intuitive at all
