Not "cannot" - just "easier" :)

  I do releases by baking a new virtual machine with the code+config built in and booting it. I guess it's possible to do that on real hardware, but calling it simply "harder" borders on disingenuous.

    You can deploy virtual machines to real hardware. That's what kubernetes, etc. are for.

    I basically do that for my Xen VMs with NixOps in the "no provisioner" mode. Would be exactly the same for bare metal, plus I get dev VMs that match the prod environment for free.
