Let's be very clear.

/root and / are NOT the same thing.  If /root fills up, meh. I really don't care.  If / fills up I may or may not care, depends on which file system my logs and working areas are in. With LVM, I almost always setup separate areas for /var and /tmp and /var/lib so a full / means almost nothing until I patch.

As usual, there's no one-size-fits-everyone in Linux.
