Remember that classic NFS uses IP addresses to manage access, with no concept of passwords. And all traffic is sent in cleartext.
(And that's also ignoring the fact you don't get NFS support on Windows 10 unless you're lucky enough to have access to the enterprise edition.)
Given the choice, I'd rather run SMB than non-Kerberized NFS.
