An alternative approach: let's accept the fact that %_bindir=/usr/bin is here 
to stay. Using a macro for "system binaries directory" is a legacy of old times 
and we can just as well use the fixed path of "/usr/bin" for that everywhere. 
(Using a macro for "where should I install my binaries", which can be /usr/bin 
or something else in case of flatpaks, is a different story and is OK.)

I disagree. It's legible and perfectly fine. The system is not going to be 
installed in a different location.
