I don't think there's any suggestion that you shouldn't be denied an 
ability to set it up like that.

The current defaults definitely suck, and its very 'unusual' which is a 
pain for anyone who's
used to *BSD and Linux.

Seriously, though, how realistic are these old 'fill up root' arguments 
these days?  We don't
have 9GB SCSI unipaks on home machines these days. Do we see lots of 
problems
being discussed in *BSD and Linux support fora because root filled up? 
No.  Do we see
lots of issues here because the default layout can't even handle 
installing its own dev tools?
Yes.
