T as said - a dumb dfeault > he only reason /boot is separate is due to > legacy grub didn't support ext3 or 4 well, and that is why it would be REALLY idiotic to say "hey now all supports each FS, we do not need /boot" as i installed my systems with a 500 MB /boot there was no imagination that ext4 can be relevant in the future, but as it was released it was easy to use it for system/data believe it or not - history will happen again we all do not know about future development but you can setup your systems with the expierence of the past or ignore it and hope all will be fine i chose smater setups and ignoring defaults made for "click, next,c lick, next" users
