due to deployment hell you end up using docker

Maybe tackle that deployment hell instead of band-aiding it with docker?

He is. By using statically linked binaries.

Technically this is conflating two things: bundling dependencies and static/dynamic linking. But since you have to bundle your dependencies to use static linking, and there's little point dynamic linking if you bundle your dependencies... most of the time they are synonymous.

Exceptions are things like plugins, but that's pretty rare.
