That's for you as sysadmin to decide. Say you have a mail system, where the users mails are stored in /home/$users/maildir, then booting and starting the MDA even if /home is not available is probably not a good idea. If /home is not critical for your use case and it doesn't matter if the system comes up without /home, then nofail might be ok. It really depends on how you use your system.
