Of course it outperforms it, but it's basic instrumentation, how do you properly select the labels for example? In your application you will have custom instrumentation for business logic, so what do you do? Now you have two systems instrumenting the same app?

You can enrich the spans created by eBPF by using OpenTelemetry APIs as usual, the eBPF instrumentation is a replacement for the instrumentation SDK. The eBPF program will detect the data recorded via the APIs and will add it to the final trace combining both automatic and manually created data.
