What is "the complete path"? In world with hard

What I mean is the actual path for a given file and
not just a relative path.
/Users/admin/.... and so on
And what I mean is that a file may have more than one actual path and
location, and that it wouldn't surprise me if inside the kernel there
is no notion of "the path" to a file, only some location on disk
(possibly together with whatever the user specified, but as you noted
that does not have to be a complete path)
