This is not correct. Whether any of /usr/bin,/usr/sbin,/bin or /sbin
share a partition or not has no relationship to whether a user can
invoke a command, or whether that path is searched for unqualified
command names (determined by $PATH).
2. If /usr is partitioned separately instead of a unified / partition,
ordinary users can also use commands in /usr/bin, which increases
convenience
This is also incorrect for the same reasons as explained above.
