The doc described the macOS home mount as /Users/<username> in one place and then referred to /home/<you> as "your Mac home dir, mounted in", which contradicts itself. The Linux $HOME (/home/<username>) is a separate persistent directory; the macOS home is what is mounted at /Users/<username>. Fixes apple#1678
