80% is misleading, since there are still variations that are missing, like user shells, build paths and filesystems (disorderfs isn't used yet).

Sure, but variations are there so the reproducible builds are more robust and can be done natively. It doesn't mean that you can't reproduce these packages, just stick to the standard build paths, filesystems, etc...

Also, I see that user login shell is varied.
