yes. idk how bloaty it would be. an x86-64 gdb stub weighs in at < 1000 lines.
if one were starting from scratch, a uniform measurement/management interface along the lines of osquery, sysctl, or /proc would be alot more straightforward on both the back and front end than the current weird mix of command line tools that linux presents.
I think the most interesting question, as others have mentioned in the thread, is providing decent debugging and introspection in the distributed context. the development of those kinds of tools seems pretty orthogonal to the size of your kernel and whether or not it runs systemd.
