Good to know it works for you. I had simular options like you.

I get my system booting, but it hangs after

Started recreate volatile files and directories

after a minute or so i get messages about being timed out:

systemd[1]: Job getty at tty2.service/start failed with result 'dependency'
and some more about swap

I've looked buy going into chroot again the various files in
tmpfiles.d, and they do nothing spectacular, creating files, removing
old ones...

But about your suggestion, I guess it's the best not to exclude
things, but give users a choice, with good comments about the
differences and consequences. So offer them both (or more....) in the
LFS (or Clfs) book.

If I'm ready with this, I will write the guide for LFS/CLFS.
