To be in compliance with the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, shouldn't the use of '/usr/local' be considered?

http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s09.html:
"4.9.1. Purpose

The /usr/local hierarchy is for use by the system administrator when installing software locally. It needs to be safe from being 
overwritten when the system software is updated. It may be used for programs and data that are shareable amongst a group of 
hosts, but not found in /usr."
