I would imagine the most important thing from a distro is the support from the downstream vendor (i.e: canonical or red hat) that comes with it. Downloading and compiling from source to a minimal distro (like what alpine does it seems) is nice and all but would be limited for toys/dev deployments and not sure how i would get my CTO convinced to use those images instead of officially supported one from a reputed vendor cause the benefits are a few mbs (and freeness obv) gains
