(Windows user that switch to linux and then say: we only need partition for / and /home are also enemies. Windows user that have switch to linux and use root for every task are enemies.)
Are those ex-Windows users slowing you down in any way?
And anyway, if you are talking about desktops, I’ve been using only / and /home for about 20 years since I noticed that /boot and /var didn’t bring me any value for a really long time. I’m currently wondering if I shouldn’t ditch /home.

Wow, I can’t believe I’m reading that first point from a 2018 comment. I’d mock it if it was in 2006.
You should have backups. Not hedge against 1 in 10 million error conditions.
The second one is a huge bother in desktops. I never not regretted trying it.
The third one is a complete non-problem.
ok
This is only a problem with OpenBSD. They never encourage using a huge single root partition, and never test it.
