Absolutely true. The util-linux maintainer is not happy that we 
don't have filesystem specific man pages for many filesystems.

The goal is to have in mount.8 only links to another man pages, for
example see smart NFS guys:

  Mount options for nfs and nfs4:
       See the options section of the nfs(5) man page (nfs-utils
       package must be installed).
