Not *quite* true. I whined about separate /usr a bit even though I've been using a linked-into-the-kernel initramfs since about six minutes after that became possible, so fixing it was one mount --bind away.
But then I'm a flaming conservative by inclination who hates change :) most people actually had, y'know, *rationales*, such as that they weren't using an initramfs already and setting one up is a bit hair-raising (you can expect to break booting a few times if you're doing anything at all unusual, just as with any other major init script change).

AOL.
As a gentoo user, I have a custom kernel with near-enough no modules. Why do I need an initramfs? And when I've mucked about with a system that used it, I got into quite a mess, and needed gentoo to get me out of it.
Yup. People don't like change. I still don't like grub - I'd go back to lilo if it wasn't for everything having moved on and forced me to change...
Cheers,
