So a snap is a more complicated version of a statically-built binary?

  yeah basically, although 'more complicated' depends on what you consider to be complicated, because another benefit is that you can be sure they run cross platform across any distro that runs snapd, and you don't actually end up replicating all dependencies in every binary, because snapd doesn't duplicate the ones already installed.
