Why would you want DB drivers and S3 clients in your runtime? That’s exactly what 3rd parties are for, you don’t want to have to update your runtime for a new version of your drivers

Every approach has its pros and cons. OTOH the less you rely on third party deps, the less attack surface.

And a bug in a dependency you can fix easily. One in the runtime is much harder to fix and you then must compile new versions.
