Finally, the FHS probably isn't as relevant today as it once was.
If you're an app dev, you can package up a Flatpak (where FHS need not apply) instead of making dozens of distro packages.
If you're a library upstream, you already have to expose configure knobs for paths because each distro does a slightly different thing.
If you're a distro packager, you've already been doing your own thing forever. Again, FHS need not apply
It's a useful convention, but that's it IMO
