> Chimera supports many different configurations, leaving the user free to carve up their disk as they please — but does not support having /usr on a separate partition.

On systems with both a hard drive and ssd (since on most distros /(s)bin and /lib* are sym links into /usr, most binaries are ultimately in /usr), my recent preference is to have the hard drive as / and ssd as /usr (then sym link or bind mount there as needed for things that could use the speed, like Steam). Am I the only one who thinks this way or am I way off?

I don’t think of ssd and hdd for different parts of the filesystem. Rather / is a zfs/btrfs/bcachefs pool, and the ssd is added as a read cache to the pool

Edit: it can also be a write cache but that’s more tricky, usually with a battery backed hardware raid it’s fine
