If the diskspace is limited, there often is no available space to host a separate /usr.
The old drive in my gateway was a 4G drive. There was One partition. ;-)=
I do see the need to have all in one partition in many cases.
But there is a diffenrece in having a need and require it. :-)=

Some of the answers I got here suggested otherwize. if /usr needs to be mounted in order for the system to boot normally. Then have systemd mount it.
I do see that there might be some problems involved in solving it.

</I>
Yes. I see that, and I see that it can be agood idea to merge /*bin with /usr/*bin
><i> I never could understand why the complication of separate /bin and /sbin,
</I>
I still feel that the daemon's executeable's belongs in sbin rather than bin.

</I>
I haven't noticed that. do you have an example?

</I>
Agreed. But don't throw the baby out with the water. ;-)=
