Not true. There's another selectable option I always use: create no swap. /If/
swap is actually needed, the existing one can be added to fstab after installation
is complete, easy if by-label or by LABEL instead of by-uuid.
I have swap partition, but with 16G RAM it was never used, so because not
/needed/, I keep it turned off.
