The use of "you" is discouraged, see https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/writing-style.html.
I think it shortens the sentences a bit. I've marked some other minor mistakes. In general, I like the example and it's a great addition to the man page.

lib/geom/eli/geli.8

maybe add an "automatically" to this sentence?

1128 ↗(On Diff #74683)

s/asking/asked/ (or requested)

1149 ↗(On Diff #74683)

/asks/ask/

1151 ↗(On Diff #74683)

maybe shorten this sentence a bit: "... the boot process is stopped asking for the passphrase" or "...waiting for the passphrase input".

  • Avoid using 'you' in the example sentences

Thanks for feedback, I integrated it and removed the 'you's.

a "you" sneaked in here... ;-)

"... when geli init is called."

  • Remove a missed 'you' in a sentence
