Slack warning/ticket at 75%, page at 85% (to oncall obviously). Don’t let user workload crap into your root partition. I’ve been doing this for over 10 years and managed many thousands of nodes and literally don’t recall full disk problem unless it was in staging somewhere where monitoring was deliberately disabled.

Your requirements for "proper monitoring" are not everyones requirements.
On a current gig, we host at heroku. Our monitoring is all about 95th percentile response-times, secondary services, backlogs, slow-queries and whatnots. For another job, "disk space filling up" is important. Again another job will need to monitor email-delivery-rates and so on and so forth.
