Where? Section 4.5. /usr/bin Most User Commands[1] specfically allows
directories, going so far as to explictly mentioning one directory, and
mandating a link to another directory.

You may be thinking of Section 3.4.2 Requirements[2] which forbids
directories; however that section refers only to /bin.
