In the same boat here as well. Especially when you’re talking about container images using JavaScript or other interpreted languages that are bundling in a bunch of other dependencies, the developer experience is much better in my experience given that more developers are likely to have had experience working in a Debian based distro than an Alpine based one. Especially when you’re also developing within the container as well, having that be unified is absolutely worth the convenience, and honestly security and reliability as well. I realize that a container with less installed on it is inherently more secure, but if the only people who are familiar with the system are a small infrastructure/platform/ops type of team, things are more likely to get missed.
