As has been pointed out to me gently by a few people, disk duplication
involves a byte-by-byte copy of a disk, and works the same whether it's
a DOS, NeXT, MAC, or whatever filesystem.  Therefore it was probably the
very reason M Carling suggested which had TELOS put a DOS disk with 
Simson & Mike's book, and not anything to do with DOS disk duplication
being any easier or cheaper than NeXT disk duplication.

Sorry for any confusion my holiday addled comment might have caused.

Sigh.  Back to thesis hacking...
