Thanks! Most of those seem like a fair trade-off for portability… for an app.

I’m not sure it’s a great idea for an OS as in the OP, but I do like that they claim accurate incremental rebuilds, to ensure everything get updated. Certainly an interesting experiment!

Edit: just to clarify, I meant "app" as in "something that isn't part of the OS/distribution".

The bash-static example alone is proof that the "usefulness" for apps isn't actually there.
