I don't think anyone has argued it's "good" for anyone. An initramfs it's just now the only supported way (by udev and systemd) to have a separated /usr partition. If your /usr is in the same partition as /, then udev and systemd supports your configuration *without* an initramfs. I have it like that in a couple of servers, and actually I only use an initramfs in my laptop and desktop because I like plymouth. If your /usr is in a separate partition as /, and you don't want to use an initramfs, you're free to do so. Only then udev (and systemd, if you use it) will not support your configuration, and any problem you encounter will be ignored in their mailing lists/bugzillas.
