Your argument for host os, virtual os, container is the very point im making. Rather than solve for security and installablity, we built more tooling, more layers of abstraction. Each have overhead, security surface and complexity.
Rather than solve Rusts performance (at build time), switch to a language that is faster but has more overhead, more security surface, more complexity.
You have broken down the stack of turtles that we have built to avoid solving the problem, at the base level...
SABRE, what the article is discussing, is the polar opposite of this, it gives us a hint that more layers of abstraction arent always the path to solutions.
