I understand that the URL rewrite issue has been moved to BP 2.1. However the question still has not been answered as to whether this will solve the BP incompatibility with standard WordPress installation “In Its Own Directory”.
Will fixing the URL rewrite issues resolve this incompatibility issue as described here: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/before-installing/

So, are the minimum system requirements changing for BuddyPress 2.0 to support “Giving WordPress Its Own Directory”?

This is a supported and well documented wordpress installation configuration (https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory).

There is a very specific caveat in the buddypress installation documentation stating that it Does Not support this sort of wordpress installation.
See the fifth bullet down on https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/before-installing/

I thought that perhaps with the revised URI re-write, this WP installation configuration might finally be supported
