Bundling dependencies aren't the only reason containers are used though. We still want to sandbox everything, and those sandboxes need to provide dependencies. At least with dynamically linked you can decouple and share things like "runtimes" in the flatpak vernacular, which does have some advantages like dependency security updates.
