Separate /usr is 100% historical AFAICT ... per systemd it's unsupported,
and IIRC its not perfect supported on any distro for a variety of reasons.

I think the ultimate fate, from my readings at least, is merging top level
dirs _into_ /usr and symlinking /bin and friends to it.  thus /usr becomes
your whole "OS" and top level is only state/persistent/transient data.
