No it is not. The /boot and /tmp partitions are superfluous, and /boot/efi is too large (but at a guess it was already there), but they would barely make a difference. On the other hand, in 2023, it is still a very good idea to separate the system filesystem that gets written frequently from the one that gets written rarely from the user data filesystem. A good illustration of that fact (which I do not contest) would be if you saw a /usr separate from / or a /usr/local separate from /+/usr with very unbalanced usage ratio. > It is difficult to say if you have things installed that you don't > need, because we don't know your needs nor what you have installed!
