I'm sure it would have, but it's long past time for dynamic linking to get the old yeller treatment
aside from the fact that package management is a nightmare that nobody is good at, the security argument goes in the other direction too. supply chain attacks enable compromising absolutely everything instead of only new builds
however I don't care very much about dynamic linking because I think the OS paradigm we use should also be put down. hardware is not expensive anymore but the mantra is still "maximize the use of hardware". why do I care if a $5 hardware slice is only used for email and sits idle 23 hours 55 minutes a day? it was $5
