Yes, there's no point predicting something
when it's not necessary to.

This post is in the Newbie forum - the
reasonable answer given the
current situation for a newbie is to
not worry about it when they don't need to.
There's nothing stopping them making changes in future, when they have an idea of the sizes of different areas given their personal usage and can make a more informed choice.
To be clear, I'm not saying there's no benefit to separate filesystems, (I'll personally do it on any machine with space for multiple drives), but it's not a necessity and if a newbie wants to install Linux on a machine with a single small-medium drive, why add unnecessary worry about whether partitions are big enough.
