This is probably the best explanation I've seen.
Do you have an idea why the CLI tools aren't distributed independently? Why shouldn't I be able to run it on a Debian system I already have (and understand)?
Running an entire new distro just seems like overkill for what it actually does over a normal Linux system. It's just a configuration manager!
