Umm. Why are you bringing up these total red herrings?

Those embedded systems can just build everything into one image, and are
much better off using no modules at all.

But how about instead of complaining, help add the infrastructure then, so
that you can insert those firmware things into modules and still use just
one single interface?

Move _forward_, not backwards.
