/usr was and is never to be used for system stuff. It is for user stuff, low-privilege stuff, just as it's name says. This is the standard and the norm. Or it was until systemd decided to break things.
LOL. That has not been so for decades. System V changed that, not system D. Or even before that. Pick up a SuSE 5, (year 1998) and you will see that /usr is where most of the system stuff is. http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_2.3/fhs-2.3.html#PURPOSE18 ++++························· Filesystem Hierarchy Standard Filesystem Hierarchy Standard Group ... Purpose /usr is the second major section of the filesystem. /usr is shareable, read-only data. That means that /usr should be shareable between various FHS-compliant hosts and must not be written to. Any information that is host-specific or varies with time is stored elsewhere. Large software packages must not use a direct subdirectory under the /usr hierarchy. ·························++- -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
