I'd buy into it if vfat weren't so brittle – several times I had to use syslinux in /boot because the ESP lost *both* kernels I had in it... "sync; sync; unmount; mount; check" was part of my kernel update ritual for a while. Maybe it's the Linux driver, maybe it's my UEFI that's bad at FAT, I dunno.
I use /boot as ESP on the work laptop, but not really going to merge them on the personal one just yet.
