What are the benefits of statelessness storing things in /usr and etc instead of /home? I would have thought using a home directory is preferable to root because the home directory can be easily modified, partitioned and backed up.
Also what are the advantages of setting up things to remove /etc/passwd and grub etc. It seems to be you're making it harder for the experienced user to manage their system and now they have to learn a new toolset.
