After a big week of discussions, I don’t think there have been any valid objections against the scheme you are proposing. It still allows to split / and /usr for various reasons (the most useful one today being encrypting / and not /usr). Once this is done I don’t think there are valid reasons to not move back stuff from / to /usr, either. The cost is not too high, the number of systems it breaks is extremely small, and the long-term gain is significant. -- .''`.
