Gobolinux has been trying to redefine and simplify the linux filesystem for a long time already, but no one gives it a chance

Love Osnews. Been reading since the 00's.
This is a dumb explanation and take by somebody who is stuck in their ways, and refuses to understand modern permissions systems.
The location of a binary executable matters less now than ever, and it's location on the filesystem doesn't matter whatsoever. It's up to whomever packages and nothing more. As long as it's documented, it doesn't matter.
Your animosity is perplexing given that the article agrees with you; it even ends with:
Anyway, these are good moves, and I’m glad most prominent Linux distributions are not married to decisions made in the ’70s, especially not when they can be undone without users really noticing anything.
....and the rest of it?
Also...do you know what the word "animosity" means? This ain't that.
