Yes, Ralf says how a sentence from FHS "is meant to be interpreted". I'm giving you a clear statement, that distributions may install software into /opt. Is the interpretation that Ralf is mentioning an official interpretation of FHS authors? Because if not, you are clearly preferring your interpretations over a clear statement. Or is there something more that I don't see?\

Yes. I said, see the quote. Not the interpretation. If you see the quote, you can tell us how you interpret it. It might also be a useful exercise to look at how other distributions interpret it as well. What does add-on software mean? If you want to get a official interpretation, talk to whoever is supposedly trying to revise it now.
