Is there a mainstream distro that disregards all the legacy cruft? Gobo, but that’s not really mainstream.

Mac OS?

macOS has all of that (mostly inherited from NeXTSTEP which was significantly based on 4.3/4.4BSD). It's hidden by default in the GUI, visible in Terminal.

Nowadays most end users just use /usr/local or /opt/local or whatever is managed by Homebrew or Macports.
