Currently it states: ReadOnly= defaults to on for Verity partition types, and off for all others. GrowFileSystem= defaults to on for all partition types that support it, except if the partition is marked read-only (and thus effectively, defaults to off for Verity partitions). Maybe something like "ReadOnly= defaults to the kernel default ..." (instead of implying that it default to off)
