(doesn't 'usr' mean 'universally shared resources'?)

I thought it stood for userspace? Like all the non-kernel-mode applications?

The intersection of leftism and Linux. This meme is Lemmy in a nutshell lol

Mayhaps, but you can also do this:

sudo chown me /usr/lib

Because that's the home of root the su command is used to switch user

Root's home has been /root on every distro I've ever used ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Consumer distros vs enterprise systems would be my guess I'm from the RHEL branch

But "/root" has kinda always been the root user's home directory, not the root directory /.
