Point to note: many Alpine Linux base docker images are in the 6MB ballpark. What's tiny core's advantage over Alpine? Given the outsized interest in Alpine from the docker community, it may have better packages and security updates

Correct me if I'm wrong but a docker image doesn't include a kernel.
