[Honest question] By doing that aren't you allowing any app that uses the Twilio API to open your mic/camera without permission?

Yes. As the GP stated, all data added/updated/deleted since last snapshot will be lost. If your data is that critical you can use AOF with "appendfsync always" which will fsync every write operation into a log that will replayed on startup (at a speed cost). Setting it to fsync every second (instead of always) is a good compromise.

I agree with you and I think all your points are valid but the GP specifically mentioned statically compiling dependencies, not using only what is already provided.

Something else that helps with Apple's way of doing things is their reasonably slow release cycle (when compared to most Linux distributions).
