Personally, I prefer the traditional setup with /, /usr. /var, et al. to be separate file systems. The benefit being that processes running amok are somewhat corralled, backups and restores are easier, and you have the ability to mount /usr read-only.

I can't think of a good reason to why we have /usr nowadays, except
for historical reasons. Have I overlooked something?
