I completely agree with this. The FHS policy for /srv is explicitly
worded to have no policy for /srv, so we cannot use it as packagers.
FHS says both that we must not impose any particular directory structure
within /srv, and that we must use /srv as the "default location" for
storing data used by services. The only way to satisfy that would be to
do the equivalent of "DocumentRoot /srv" for every service, which would
be simply stupid.
