All this was just an answer to the question "why would anybody ever want
to boot from /home". I don't claim this is the optimal setup.
Yes, it was just a question for information point of view, and now cleared that /home is for the data storage purpose and separate so that newer installation(s) / up-gradation(s) doesn't show any data loss - that's why.
However, people with their different intention(s) separate even /var, /tmp, /boot with their personal choice. I cannot do that until I get my legs weight a little!

Yes, unfortunately, whether Linux suspend and/or hibernate will work
well is a function of exactly what hardware you have. I think it's
gotten a lot better, and it works on most anything I have tried it with,
but as you point out, there are still some laptops where it just doesn't
work.
Hibernation and Suspension of distro -- these options are a little typical for me at least, I just either logout or Shut down.
Logout - The current user logs out of the session.
Restart - To restart the computer to get back the session.
Shutdown - The machine is off now.
IN the definitions of the above form (the above three) can simple tell me the same about 'Hibernate' and 'Suspend', as simple as written above so that the broader non technical community can understand?
