I don't see how these extra links would benefit us in any way. /usr/src in particular is a source of confusion, /srv and /media are also questionable (especially because we don't follow FHS "conventions" for their contents) and to be honest I think /mnt and /boot should go away too (I remember seeing them in older versions but we worked on removing them to clean things up).
We don't gain anything directly from the extra links. But I see that indirectly they can benefit us, if we manage to comply to the conventions. As I get it the linux-purist looks disaprovingly at us as our file structure looks somewhat different. I thought that if we were able to follow the FHS conventions we could get rid of the argument that "the files aren't were the should be" and maybe later even get LSB certified. I don't mind the glarings, but my goal was that others would have the guts to try something new and find out that it actually is better now that their main argument was taken away. :)
