I've grown accustomed to that. For example, `ifconfig' is just named
`/sbin/ifconfig'.

That said, the pattern seems to be dying out. Ifconfig's new and
all-shiny cousin, ip,  already is lodged in /bin, so there you go.
My muscle memory has adapted.

I don't think you can convince others to follow along, so you're
better off "enhancing", e.g. your /etc/profile. That's what it's
for, after all :-)
