If you are really going to lean on the de-dupe, then just ship the whole OS you need for your app and be done with it. Trust the magic pixie dust in the FS to de-dupe it all. Why do we have to burden the world with defining the part of the stack that is "base OS"?

Not sure if the question is directed at me but potentially because it is not magic pixie dust and we would want to define a platform while allowing distributions to change things if needed at other layers.
