not quite-- /usr is the stuff that isn't directly needed to keep the whole
show on the road... so essential programs like ld, ls, bash, rm, cat, su
and so on go in /bin, but all other system-wide binaries go in /usr/bin,
the most important libraries (like libc) are in /lib, and the rest are
in /usr/lib, and so on.
private directories for every user go under /home, not /usr.
otherwise yes.
