I've read the link above plus the link to
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/TheCaseForTheUsrMerge/

So if I get it right...

One partiton for /boot
One partition for /usr
One partition for /usr/local (if you feel like it)
One / partiton that will contain not much stuff other than config files ?
One partition for /var (if you feel)
One partition for /opt, /srv ...
One partition for /tmp

The root partition can be small as 16 Gb as it won't contain much ?

Am I getting this right ?

Here's my actual partition table (2TB HD)

udev             16G     0   16G   0% /dev
tmpfs           3.2G  2.1M  3.2G   1% /run
/dev/sda3       184G   70G  105G  40% /
tmpfs            16G  163M   16G   2% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M  4.0K  5.0M   1% /run/lock
/dev/sda5       262G   50G  199G  21% /var
/dev/sda4       175G   86M  166G   1% /tmp
/dev/sda8        88G   60M   83G   1% /usr/local
/dev/sda7        92G  3.6G   84G   5% /opt
/dev/sda10       92G   60M   87G   1% /srv
/dev/sda1       487M  3.3M  483M   1% /boot/efi
/dev/sda11      733G  649G   47G  94% /home

I currently have a 70G usage of the root partition.
Running Buster.
