Essentially needs lots of rebuilds/updates, nothing special.
On that note:
So do all those Docker/container images.
And all your systems.
I saw the (implied) question come up if a single global, content-addressable (cert) store for the entire universe would help; but: bottlenecks, agreement, ...
I am thus comparing this to the neverending discussion around shared libraries.
One property of embedding and bundling is resilience through self-sovereignty. But it's also a chicken-and-egg problem.
@CyReVolt I think you're putting words in my mouth which I haven't said. A "single global, content-addressable (cert) store for the entire universe" was not suggested to that extent.
The majority of those programs have already agreed on using a single store anyway. It's Mozilla's CA store all over the place. Except through many independently maintained copies – a python module, a rust crate pinned to old version, etc. – all of which become additional bottlenecks.
