That's up to you; we don't consider it a system utility, that's all.
Our hier(7) is pretty clear, and we try to stick to it:
/bin/ user utilities fundamental to both single-user and
multi-user environments
/sbin/ system programs and administration utilities fundamental
to both single-user and multi-user environments
Since it isn't either of the above, it goes under /usr (in FreeBSD; you
are, of course, free to disagree).
