Since it is a rolling release?

There's no relation between being a rolling release and having a separate home partition.
Having a separate home partition allows you to use it with another distro in case of a dual boot.
It's also cleaner if you need to mount it via a live-cd for example. It's easier to backup your personal data, you can have a different filesystem, in case of disk failure, you don't have to format all your disk, etc ...
Ah, good taste! What a dreadful thing! Taste is the enemy of creativeness.

It is always a good idea to keep your personal data/config files separated from /. If you break your installation to an unrecoverable state, you can always reinstall without touching /home.

And if I have an encrypted LVM?

having a encrypted LVM has nothing to do with having or not having a home partition
