I guess I'm confused, when I read the FHS, I see: 

4.9.1. Purpose
The /usr/local hierarchy is for use by the system administrator when installing 
software locally. It needs to be safe from being overwritten when the system 
software is updated. It may be used for programs and data that are shareable 
amongst a group of hosts, but not found in /usr. Locally installed software 
must be placed within /usr/local rather than /usr unless it is being installed 
to replace or upgrade software in /usr.
