But in the modern business environment, users log in from multiple
places. How does that work if the user directory is local?
On modern Linux/Unix, the "/usr" directory holds system binaries and
libraries -- it is not the user directory. On Fedora (and most Linux
systems), that is "/home". And there's no problem sharing that over the
network.
