That, actually, is the norm. It is NOT normal to partition a raid array
it IS normal for several reasons
* you may end with a replacement disk which is subtle
smaller and hence you normally make the partition
a little smaller then the device
* in case of SSD you reserve some space for
better wear-levelling
* in case you ever need to reinstall your OS you
want your data not in the same filesystem
