Are the resource overheads of a dynamically linked system really that important in 2020, considering that Linux has always been famous for being able to run on low spec hardware?
Musl has its problems too. I've stopped using alpine as a docker base image to avoid having to sink time into fixing occasionally compatibility issues (pip, Java)
