Other people already answered you, but it's mostly for:
- Keeping things obvious, you know who did what

He just told you why not to put it in /usr/bin: it's where your package manager puts executables.
I'm not too sure why it's important where your users put your script from a script author perspective? Otherwise, just check the default $PATH content for a fresh user on said system, and put it somewhere in there.
I'm as critical as the next guy of how overused and abused serverless/microservice architectures can be, but there's disliking something and being completely disingenuous. Some of the comments every time the subject is even remotely mentioned fall into the latter. This time is not the exception lol
Yeah, this stat is always a bit dubious sounding to me (how much of it is blogspam?), but WP is still much more prevalent than most devs seem to realize.
