  Well, as you know the problem with adding them in /usr/share/asterisk
is that dirs in /us/share usually should obly be used by packages, and
messing there is usually problematic with time (left files behind when
removing packages and so). Somehow, /var is more "flexible" with that.
Also, /usr can be mounted read-only, while /var shouldn't.
