Does it really matter? What people in the separate-/usr-without-initramfs camp really want is continued support for the "/ is a self-contained boot disk that is independent of /usr" use case, because without such support, the separate-/usr-without-initramfs approach that they're accustomed to becomes impossible. The /usr merge [1] can be viewed as just one of many signs of a widespread shift away from supporting the heavy burden of the "/ is a self-contained boot disk that is independent of /usr" use case.
