My reason for wanting binaries owned by bin (except when necessary)
(besides the convenience reasons mentioned above of not having to live
as root) is so that I can do something like 'quota bin' and find out
how much disk space is taken up by system programs.  Or I could split
them over a couple of different user-id's, one for each type.  Like
'local-bin', 'usg-bin', and 'ucb-bin'.

That's just one reason, the underlying reason is esthetics.  If you
define 'bin' to be the owner of the binaries they 'he' should own the
binaries.  Defining 'bin' this way gives more flexibility (after all,
flexibility is one of the traditions of Unix) than defining 'root'
as the owner of everything but user stuff.
