Done, and yes, it did.

Close. :-)  It isn't, but the level below it is.

On some of my systems, rather than try to figure out how much space to
allocate to /home and to locally installed software (which I put in /local
to protect it from future OS upgrades), I create a single partition
spanning everything not used by the OS, with individual directories for
/home, /local and whatever else happens to fit there.

Then I have /local -> /big/local, /home -> /big/home, etc.

(Yes, I know I could just use LVM2, but even that would require some kind
of guess at the initial sizing.)
