Ultimately it is about maintainers comfort then. Because there is a
compromise to un-vendor most libraries (one by one) and keep some/few
strategically vendored, when a system library can not be used (determined
case by case).
Examples of this approach are numerous: syncthing, consul, nomad, vault,
docker.io, runc, gitlab-runner, libpod, buildah, singularity-container
and _most_ Golang packages.
Kubernetes had no maintainer - that was the problem. Having maintainer who
does not care for shared libraries because he does not want to be bothered
is a different problem.
