Re: Proper location to install shell function libraries?

I agree. Consider RHEL/CentOS where you can simultanneously install both .i686 and .x86_64 versions of one package. The packages are allowed to have overlapping files, if these files don't differ.

If one puts script libraries to $libdir/<subdir>,  CentOS will have duplicate files in /lib/<subdir> and /lib64/<subdir>, but in case of $datadir there will be only one /usr/share/<subpackage>
