I’m talking about things like “python3-blabla” and “libsomething”. How bad would it be if nobody used these library-packages and everyone just added all kinds of libraries as part of an application’s package?

    Packages can share dependencies in NixOS, and often do for packages in the same version of nixpkgs. It’s not quite the same as statically linking everything, but it basically gives you the perks of that with fewer downsides and other advantages.
