True for workstations, but most services are running on VMs these days. OS shouldn't need blobs to run on VMs.

Right, but now you have two separate operating systems to manage which are different at the kernel level (as your host is probably linux, bsd, esxi, etc.) This means you often have to manage twice the amount of tooling, documentation, scripts, etc. and makes it impractical for many cases.
