You mean as opposed to your container/virtualization having one line of code that is "fd"?

The point of my statement is you have tens upon thousands of lines of code, systems are complex.
You can’t put all your eggs in a basket given the probability that something is fd.
Downvoting my statement is fine as long as it’s noobs learning from this script and not someone who is running critical infrastructure. :)

"You can’t put all your eggs in a basket given the probability that something is fd."
But you'd be doing that no matter what unless you're running each daemon on a different physical machine. That basket's just called "Xen" now instead of "OpenBSD". Worse, if the hypervisor has a bug that can be triggered from unprivileged guest code (i.e. as a non-root user in the guest OS), then any layers added in the guest are moot.
