If bob did the exportfs -r prior to mounting /home/whatever that is to be exported then it would have exported the directory on / and not what was later mounted.
He needs to umount the nfs clients, and run exportfs -r on the server and remount on the clients. And make sure that if the directory fails to mount on a reboot then the exportfs -r will need to be rerun.
The showmount -e will not show if it is the dir on / or the dir on the mount.

I see a typo in the “comment=systemd.automout”.
Also, earlier mail makes me think it’s not actually mounted. What does “mount -a” return?
Does /media/nfs exist? Once you get the fstab fixed, test to see if it automounts.
FWIW, I believe the preferred current option is now
x-systemd.automount
And if desired
x-systemd.idle-timeout= x-systemd.mount-timeout=
See, man systemd.mount
