This seems to be ok - it is the same as what I do (except the 'zerombr

And if the 'clearpart --all' option is working - you shouldn't ever
see a complaint about the /usr partition being too small - UNLESS -
your %pre python script is not creating the /usr partition with the
right size.
The script is pretty big so I am not going to post it, however, I can
post what the output looks like.
Here is an example of /tmp/partition on a machine that fails.
# Disk: sda 70001 megs
# Ram: 4034 megs
# Arch: ia64
part / --size 300 --maxsize 375 --grow
part /boot/efi --size 100 --fstype vfat --asprimary
part /scratch --size 400 --grow
part /tmp --size 512 --maxsize 1024 --grow
part /usr --size 2400 --maxsize 2550 --grow
part /var --size 512
# Swap requested: 8068
part swap --size 8068 --ondisk sda
/usr is more than big enough for the disto I am putting on.
Maybe paste your python %pre script here so we can have a look at it -
my guess would be that there is something funny going on there ...
If I run it again ( by rebooting ) it all works fine the second time.
That is what is bizaar.
