Just curious as to why? I don't think there's a particularly compelling reason.

Seems like we would just need to modify the build system to not install `nfs-server.service` and other NFSv3-only service files and modify the remaining service files to reference nfsv4-server.service instead? > Unfortunately the idea of having a nfsv4 only server > did not go over well with upstream.
