You mean that time when Ubuntu merged an implementation based on a broken
design with broken interfaces, that was causing dpkg database damage, where
the tech-ctte also tried to force through, in all its wisdom? Right, great
example. (And let's ignore release cadences for more spectacular effect.)
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2012/03/msg00005.html>
But just wow, such a mischaracterization and deformation of the events.
Sadly, at this point I'm not surprised. This goes along comments such as
that the intersection of packages not using debhelper and shipping
split-/usr files are in the "thousands" (way less than the actual number
of packages shipping those pathnames), or the ones in the paragraphs
below about that mythical bug report, and the single failed attempt to
symlink farm, etc, etc…

Just like no one had detected the database corruption in Ubuntu before
I spotted the problem via code review and analysis (which I guess in
your world translates to "opinion"). I'd expect the problems with
aliased directories to be that kind of insidious issue that people
have a very hard time trying to pin point, and which will be getting
worse as time passes.

You keep repeating this, but I have no idea what bug you refer to.
There's #148258 (from 2002), which is conffile related, and not
actionable and should probably just be closed.
There's #182747 (from 2003), which while apparently similar is
something else completely. This is about the (IMO) misfeature of
supporting a local admin to redirect (not alias) a directory using a
local symlink (mainly for space management reasons). For an explanation
see <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=779060#10>.
There's #406715 (from 2007) which is related to the above misfeature.

What I'm appalled at is the sloppiness and dogma shown in the name of
a filesystem layout that will have very minimal benefit for final users
(in contrast to some use cases for some admins or installations that
should already know what they are doing, and can manage all potential
downsides in a controlled way through a hack like usrmerge), knowingly
in detriment of robustness and stability.

To even consider the possibility to support this missing feature in
dpkg would require for it to get support for at least tracking
filesystem metadata (which is has *never* *ever* supported), which is
currently not deployable:
<https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/Spec/MetadataTracking>
Even with that support in place, that just would not give automatic
aliased directory support. It would need no package to ship anything
inside those directories, and it would also need for some package to
ship those aliased symlinks. And then many corner cases would need to
be considered as then dpkg will need to reconcile what's on the
filesystem, on its database and on the various .deb (given that these
have been a shared resource, that it cannot possibly and safely switch
type by itself), w/o also breaking previous expectations. Not to mention
that the general aliasing issues still would not disappear.
> but to demand the entire project has to stand still,
So wait, when it suits you the "entire project" is involved and cannot
do stuff, but when it does not the "entire project" is not required to
do anything because the proposed solution magically solves stuff for
free with no effort involved… right.

This again. The rest of the world is not Debian, and as Wouter nicely
put it, we used distinguish ourselves for doing things right. Also while
I'm for merging into /usr, selling it as some kind of technological
advancement breakthrough sounds rather ridiculous. But I guess times
change, and "transitions" now are not planned nor thought nor designed
and people just throw stuff to the wall and just check whether it
sticks or not…

If that's an approach to reliable and stable systems where that's
the binary "the sky has fallen" or not, I supposed it follows that
in that world view stuff like security is handled such that an
analysis ("opinion", sorry) of a vulnerability can be downplayed
and ignored because there are no reported botnets riding on.
I guess I might be old fashioned or something, but I'm not interested
at all in sharing such world.
Unimpressed,
