So, given the choices of: |
| 10 |
1. Re-establishing FHS standards so that I can boot with / only. |
| 11 |
2. Consolidating everything under /usr so that just about all |
| 12 |
OS-managed files are in a single place. |
| 13 |
3. Stuffing everything in /usr into my root partition. |
| 14 |

I'd say that #3 is the worst of all possible worlds. At least there |
| 16 |
is some kind of expected benefit from the /usr move. Sure, you COULD |
| 17 |
shove everything into root, but I can't think of anybody in this |
| 18 |
debate who would consider that a useful solution. |

Go read the Fedora reasons-for-the-/usr-move page. Whether you think |
| 21 |
it is worth it or not is one thing, but at least there are reasons for |
| 22 |
it. I can't think of any benefits from doing the reverse. |
