While I'm fairly certain that it was in the LVM portion of the handbook
(since that is what I was wanting to use), I really don't care what that
link says.
The fact is, when I installed this system, it was my very first gentoo
system, and I am very methodical about these kinds of things, and there
is absolutely no way on gods green earth that I would have opted for a
separate /usr unless the instructions said to do it, whether as
something that was mandatory, or maybe it only said it was preferred (to
take advantage of the features of LVM)...
