I also have a working version of my system,

system. My aim is to have my complete system fit into my pocket, and to be
able to carry external hard drives in a bag. Then if I ever get stuck
somewhere without even a laptop, I can (with permission) use another
computer, and boot into my own system.
after reading this and recalling your partitioning scheme I would suggest to
encrypt as it is much easier to loose the usb drive or get it stolen.
in this case you need 2 partitions (assuming sda is your drive)
sda1 for boot (512MB)
sda2 for rest
sda2 cryptsetup with luks then create logical volumes for your root, home,
swap and so on.
Most newer computers manufactured 2010+ have CPU that supports AES, which is
making luks transperent
