I dunno, there's a fair amount to be said for having an up-to-date kernel, systemd, and Docker. :)

It depends on the kind of "up-to-datism", at least for me. Security - yes. Features - for docker yes, the rest not really.

The main problem is that if I provide a specific repo for docker (to keep a fresh version) it can request some dependencies and bam! I have a Debian-Turend-Arch system to maintain :)

I mostly included syetemd due to the shiny new feature where you can enable kernel samepage merging for arbitrary applications. Could be very useful for certain use cases.
