Bad/illogical/outdated directory structure is one of the most annoying things I've encountered while using Linux, because it makes the admin job feel unnecessarily messy (things are all over the place), and it feels as if there's a fundamental imbalance in the system that you can't get rid of.

Many admins feel like a Jedi when they memorize all the trivia about a file's path.

There's no shortage of people in a particular profession that feed on unnecessary complexity even when the original reason for said complexity (i.e. tiny drives) doesn't exist any more.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to figure out why sound doesn't work on Linux in 2022 like it's 1997. No seriously, I legit have to do that now. Someone should really develop another system for sound, again.
