Re:Understanding the bin, sbin, usr/bin, usr/sbin split (2010) by hnlmorg on Wednesday May 11, 2022 @06:08AM (#31337842)
This is wrong (and dangerously so too).

On FreeBSD 3rd party packages go into /usr/local and not /usr

You absolutely will get base packages in /usr/bin (eg `env`) so nuking /usr/bin will break your FreeBSD install.
