You quoted a hypothical question I posed[1] which follows directly on |
| 12 |
from something I described in the previous paragraph. You should really |
| 13 |
retain context in what you decide to snip, as you have changed the |
| 14 |
entire meaning and intent of what I said and asked. |

[1] The question was literally an RFC - a request for people to |
| 19 |
comment. I have no strict engineering or configuration need for / |
| 20 |
and /usr to be separate; I know of one setup configuration that |
| 21 |
requires it, I asked who needs it for different reasons and |
| 22 |
why - not as a debate point, but as a learning point. |

Does that sufficiently answer the thought that prompted you to reply? |
