This is a good question. Also important to remember is that for many Linux distributions dynamically linked OpenSSL artifacts are what end up getting used by the vast majority of binaries.

Yeah, I was thinking by all of the binaries. I had forgotten that there's software that bundle it independently of the distro's library. Another comment mentioned docker images, and I've remembered that ruby also bundles it for its own use.
