I can't even begin to describe how little sense that makes.
using apt for managing all system packages seem like a security flaw. If it get corrupted or run badly, whole OS can be destroyed.
Don't even try installing steam or you loose all your gpu drivers and stuff.
I think that mainly happens if your name is Linus Sebastian.
If you delete the file vmlinuz your OS could also get destroyed.
That's the exact reason why I run TempleOS, it is immune to this known critical vulnerability because it does not have a vmlinuz file.
