This weird argument goes back 25 years, when some of us were recompiling KDE daily. Then, you'd add "prefix=/opt/kde" because, as those who wanted it splattered all over the place discovered to their anguish, if the build blew up you could easily delete everything from /opt/kde -- not so easy if you've distributed it all through the filesystem.

I'd argue that more rather than fewer things ought to be nicely segregated in /opt.
