xdg normalizes the /home parts that matter for interoperability. Other
normalization groups like the FHS have already agreed they are the right
forum to define /home layout conventions. It is pointless to try to
start defining location conventions for binaries in /home fedora side
and bypass xdg now.
I can no longer tell whether you are for or against adding ~/.local/bin
to the default PATH.
