It is not about being funny, it is about making reasonable decisions.
/run solved a huge old problem, libexec is pointless and only creates
needless and nothing but annoying differences.
It's a practical way to keep helpers out of path and autocomplete
without polluting /usr/lib[64] and having to deal with multilib issues,
what's pointless about it ?
