No more example layouts for partitions in the beginners guide?

The example layouts were moved to "Partitioning" on July 6th where they were subsequently removed 3 days later for not being "well integrated with the rest of the content". I get the whole self-sufficiency expected from beginners but I found that these examples (with commands) gave a solid base on which to build your own layout. I fear new beginners will instead of reading the man page of, for example, parted just use google and end up on some sketchy non-arch forum thread with outdated/dangerous instructions.

Please read the whole discussion about the BG before criticising individual changes totally out of context.
