The first I saw of this prejudice was when, to implement daemontools,
Daniel J Bernstein (djb) created /service and /command. The way the
technoconformists acted, he should have had police protection :-). No
distro ever had /service or /command: They put them in different places
not directly off the root.

By the way, djb's daemontools inspired the runit and s6 we love today.
I started using daemontools somewhere in the mid 00's.
