Actually this split is a godsend because you can convince anaconda to
leave your home alone when reinstalling, while someone always seems too
invent a new Fedora change that justifies the reformatting of /.
Good luck dealing with user data the next time workstation (or any
other group) feels the / filesystem should change, once you've put user
data on the same mount point
The whole point of the btrfs change is to keep / and /home on separate subvolumes to avoid
the anaconda requirement to reformat / from affecting /home while also avoiding the
problem of running out of space on one while still having tons of free space on the other.
