It's just acknowledgment of the status quo. And most upstream projects
which are currently borked on /usr have no plans to fix that, because
they don't consider that a bug. And all we do is to warn the user about it.

There's no decision here. It's just a warning.

Well, it hasn't been working correctly in ages. It's really not new
policy we came up with here. It's just a warning to the user that setups
like this will break. End of story.

Also see the README in systemd git about this.
