The only three partitions I'd recommend are swap, /, and /boot. Why in
the world would anybody want to make little fixed-size partitions, in
today's world of huge disks?

I have an NVMe / partition, /usr, /lib, etc directly on the /, and
things like /home and my various data partitions bind-mounted to a
spinning rust. Rubber walled directories.
