I disagree here. You have at least 1 user to remotaly login to the system to do some work on it. Think config changes etc. In case of unauthorized access (ppl stole your password or whatever) you will be glad you have /home on a seperate partition that is mounted noexec,nosuid,nodev > > > /tmp > > Enoughtemporary space.

Even better would be to use LVM for /var partitions. That way you can easily add extra space to it without the hassle of moving around data.
