This list was not intended to be exhaustive, as has been discussed prior. If that were the case, we would easily balloon into 64+ binaries. Feedback appreciated - if there are configurations we can loose or other scenarios we should be supporting as an alternative, insight would be greatly appreciated. This is mostly me poking around.

The musl effort is only a last minute addition based on prior effort hosting in docker, it's unclear as to whether it should replace nix or be dropped.

An solid selection, I’m not missing anything.
