Obviously, but with that logic the only unique thing with his solution is that it doesn't work well in the software ecosystem of our time. Not a great selling point.

It is more than fine to opt at not supporting ISO, but the arguments put forward for this crusade are not convincing.

I agree. They read like "I don't want the additional work of creating ISOs" to me. Which, honestly, is plenty good justification for not making them on its own. There's no need for further justification.

Why wouldn't it work well with your software ecosystem. All hypervisors allow booting from a disk image. If not you wouldn't be able to boot your installed OS!
