Personally I hate scratch images because once you lose busybox, you lose the ability to exec into containers. It's a great escape hatch for troubleshooting.

There are a few options that help here. With host access, I tend to just use nsenter most of the time to do different troubleshooting. It can be a bit of a pain doing network troubleshooting though since the resolv.conf will be different without the fs namespace.

And kubernetes has debug containers and the like now.
