so explain what is FUD in the simple fact that snapshot/clone
a sperated /usr where 99% of the files are from RPM packages
while the RPM database is NOT under /usr makes no sense?

what do YOU imagine when as example (what was one of the arguments
for UsrMove) a snapshot of /usr is done before a upgrade which
changes the RPM database in /var/lib/rpm and you rollback to
the snapshot while the RPM database still has all updates?

i can not imagine a better way to fuck up a OS-installation
