That was the point (no pun intended).

please bear in mind I am not criticizing OFA in any way! I think the basic 
principle still stands. 
I also think the principle works, and continues to be an important thing for 
server/database architecture.

What I am saying here is /u01../u99 is easily misunderstood by non-DBA's, and 
even for DBA's it does not tell what the mountpoint is for.
If someone is using it, and it works: fine!
But if you want a logically and descriptive setup, the '/oracle' directory, is 
descriptive (mind I say 'directory'), and having mountpoints for the software 
and for the slices which hold pieces of the database in mountpoints beneath 
that is descriptive in my opinion.
