Again, we don't "obfuscate" binaries to make them harder to decipher. We do it because debug symbols are massive and cause a lot of bloat and sometimes even performance hits.

If you want a system like that, just compile Linux and all of your tools in debug mode. But again, why do this when you can just recompile from source?

This is a gross misunderstanding of how computers work, I feel.
