Who said that? This approach has many problems that have already been discussed here, not to mention the fact that it leaves Alpine and Bionic-based systems out in the cold.

Let me remind you that Bionic is the most widespread libc in the Linux world, and Alpine is the most popular Docker layer.

The world doesn't end with glibc. And it doesn't begin with it.
