It would be annoying and make more harm than good - thinking of kernel
updates, systemd updates and such things. It would mean that these
updates has to be persistant and in case of kernel updates the system
has to be rebooted into the new kernel - for running services they have
to be restarted etc. This might be possible with USB sticks - but what
about optical devices?
