It's something I set up manually 15 years ago or something, to deal with a
situation where /usr plus some other static directories needed to live on a
different hard drive. Different times...

Obviously not something any installer will ever do, but I don't think it's
against policy? Given that packages depend on usr-is-merged to signal
proper merged state, it shouldn't force you to undo that (especially given
that it's a very risky/tricky operation).
