I stopped using many partitions on my BSD servers (except OpenBSD router
where I use defaults), and my Rock64 type devices have only 1 partition
(plus tmpfs etc); but for those Aarch64 devices that's how the image
comes.

It's interesting though that my (FreeBSD) ZFS server has many mount points
because of various datasets. So, I decreased the OS partitions generally
but more than made up for it in datasets.
