I'd strongly advise not to nest them, because that makes mounting them
via autofs (i.e. systemd .automount units) nasty. i.e. /boot/ and
/efi/ are the way to go in my humble opinion.

Given that ESP/XBOOTLDR are likely vfat it's kind crucial to reduce
the time where the partitions are mounted to a minimum, and autofs
makes that very simple and natural, as it means the file systems are
only mounted for a very short period of time when actually accessed,
and unmounted a seconds later.
