I often see people recommend a separate home partition.
But why would (or not) that be better than just a home directory within the
root directory?
Wouldn't one less partition be simpler, and therefore (all other things
being equal) better?
Opinions, please.

Not if you type startx. I login on the Linux text console in stretch,

Hi,
I had set the noexec mount option on /tmp while installing Debian 9
using firmware-9.5.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso.
But after the installation was completed, the mount option was found
missing. This same behaviour is noticed when installing the OS using
preseed.
root@mountoptions:~# mount | grep /tmp
30 matches
