There is no "opinion" on this, the engineering specifications are clear:

/opt is where the binaries must go
/etc/opt is where the app configuration files must go
/var/opt is where the data for the application goes.

The application MUST be compiled and linked such, that it searches these 
directories and/or mountpoints for the respective files, or else you won't be 
System V compliant.
