I disagree, I can reuse my entire tool-chain that I develop on, easily package things, get the whole reproducibility, integration tests, blah blah, and make an image for maybe an embedded or net-booted image that I would prefer be smaller. Especially if I have no intention of tinkering or rebuilding things on the final prod target. Much more reproducible and easily portable than say a giant folder of alpha-numeric bash scripts, installation scripts, etc.
