Just FYI, if you want a /usr directory *for your own use*, there is
nothing to stop you setting it up. I did this long ago in BeOS because
X11 and other things *did* need that available. Never needed it in
Haiku, though.
At its most basic, just create, say, ~/usr, and edit
~/config/settings/boot/UserBootScript to add the line:
ln -s ~/usr /usr
Then the link will be created to point to your usr folder every time
you boot, and you can put whatever you like in there.
Just don't expect anybody else to do it, though (:-/)
