Could I get feedback from the community on schema partitioning?

I'm doing maintenance on my ddl and I'm noticing that my tables are all in 1 schema, but they have prefixes on their names like table_app1_sometable, table_app1_secondtable,  table_app2_anothertable, table_priviledged_restrictedtable1, etc.  The table_app1 tables seem to want to go in their own schema "app1", etc, and drop the prefixes.  Except they'll still be there, as in app1.sometable.

Is this just style?  Or are there concrete benefits to partitioning?
