That wiki page was copied verbatim from the systemd section, written by the author of systemd, after he decided to leverage systemd to force the merge on people. I'm not even saying it's a bad idea. I'm saying that one dude made the decision, and then came up with a bunch of obviously-bullshit reasons why we've been doing it wrong all along and should do it his way instead. Maybe he's right, but come on: we should be merging /usr for compatibility with Oracle Solaris 11? Give me a break. Nonsense like that weakens the overall argument. I'm just letting Jaco know that his BS detector isn't broken. The "predictable network interface names" article and others like it follow the same pattern.
