I didn't create the homing routine but it seems reasonable to me.
Linuxcnc is capable of doing exactly what you are used to, just set some of the
settings to zero.
There is a case where the home position MUST be different
than the switch position. If you
use a limit switch for home, then the home position MUST
cause the machine to back away from
the switch. Also, when using encoder index pulses to make
the homing more repeatable, then
the hole position will be slightly different from the point
where the switch trips. You then have the choice for the
axis to continue toward the switch, or to back away, while
searching for the index pulse.
I think all of these options are necessary for specific
machine configurations.
