“Unresizeable block device at end of disk”
Classically the swap partition was located at the physical middle of the drive so that on average, no matter where the heads where, the swap partition wasn’t far away
Also “unresizeable” as if you can’t just swapoff and just delete and recreated it anywhere (update the path in fstab) and then swapon again.
