Only they can answer that, but since they mentioned the separation of
root from home, I do not think so.  And I cannot imagine that anyone
could have difficulty separating / from /home using the usual
partitioning tool, it's *very* easy.

/root, on the other hand, is not a mount point, it's a directory in /,
and that's how it should be.  /root needs to be available to the root
user when they log on in all modes, including single, where only the
minimum of partitions are mounted (i.e. most, if not all, of fstab is
ignored).
