I'd say this is fair use (many other man pages do the same).
So, no need to clutter the man page source with this information.

Keno Fischer 5963519cfe fuse.4: New page describing /dev/fuse
This is my writeup of a basic description of /dev/fuse after
playing with it for a few hours today. It is of course woefully
incomplete, and since I neither have a use case nor am working
on this code, I will not be in a position to expand it in the
near future. However, I'm hoping this could still serve as a
handy reference for others looking at this interface.

The word "very" here is overkill, and inclines the reader to
think that /dev/urandom is inferior.

Michael Kerrisk 2e1f8bfa17 getrandom.2, random.4: Consolidate and improve discussion on usage of randomness
Currently, recommendations on how to consume randomness are
spread across both getrandom(2) and random(4) and the general
opinion seems to be that the text in getrandom(2) does a
somewhat better job. Consolidate the discussion to a single
page (getrandom(2)) and address some of the concerns
expressed about the existing text in random(4).

Michael Kerrisk dbf63eed2d random.4: Improve discussion of /dev/urandom, blocking reads, and signals
The text currently states that O_NONBLOCK has no effect for
/dev/urandom, which is true.  It also says that reads from
/dev/urandom are nonblocking.  This is at the least confusing.
If one attempts large reads (say 10MB) from /dev/urandom
there is an appreciable delay, and interruption by a signal
handler will result in a short read. Amend the text to
reflect this.
