Say what? That's not true in the slightest, if the drive is mountable it will show up in your file manager.
articles like this wouldn't exist if it wasn't true, they will appear but they wont auto mount https://techhut.tv/auto-mount-drives-in-linux-fstab/
*some distros may auto mount but I never used one that did
I think people are confused because the difference between mount on access and mount on boot is meaningless for 98% of people. I can think of reasons to need the latter, but not many.
You are probably right, most folks aren't even aware because they have no need for it. The only reason I need it is for my gaming rig that launches big picture mode on startup. I have no need for it on any of my desktop machines.
