Yes but we get back to the point that I had been trying to make - the
embedded devices (even nanobots) would not need to build from source.  I
know if I had embedded nanobots I would want them focusing on the job they
were embedded for, not recompiling source from the latest software updates.

That's the distinction between a source based an binary based distribution.
Use the source based distro to optimize for hardware then that is the
template for the binary based distro to the embedded systems.
