Most - although not all - of the old reasons for partitioning just don't apply
any more; many of them were hacks around disk size limitations

Stick everything in / unless you are doing complicated things with encryption
or network mounting.

Wouldn't disk partitioning be a good way to separate portions to backup? Or is it just not worth doing separate backups for /home and system?
