IMHO no.
why do packaging guidelines exist then?

.. and no, we don't need a list of exceptions.
because there sould no one be needed
Keep it consistent with upstream / common sense / distros that
didn't make the usrmove mistake
sorry, but this is a bad attitude
you can hadrly make as a distrubution a change, have guidelines
and then come up in public with "ignore them because i do
not like the change from a year ago"
hence, there are enough hidden packaging problems because
the guidelines are ignored from way to much packages
