It is clean & consistent, but :

WAR files are about web-content.  As such all that's at the root level 
of the archive (HTML, JSP, GIF etc) can be said to be the primary 
content.  Stuff in WEB-INF/classes and WEB-INF/lib can be said to be 
support.  I.e. they are given a namespace (WEB-INF/*) that is unlikely 
to be required in the directory structure of the primary content.

I don't think Phoenix server apps are that category of thing.  If I 
agree with SAR-INF at all it's to replace the "conf" dir and no more. 
 That is, unless someone can come up with an example of a SAR files that 
would need the root namespace to the same level as WAR files do.
