Does working hard involve compiling even more packages statically?
I guess, he means keeping udev in / ?
Because adding 80 KiB of initramfs hurts so much? We should then put
more work just to ensure that admin doesn't have to waste 15 minutes to
recompile the kernel (if necessary), create an initramfs and add it to
bootloader config?


80Kbs? You sure about that? I somehow failed to mention this before. I noticed it when I saw another reply to this post. Reality check:

root@fireball / # ls -al /boot/initramfs-3.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5444240 Jan  1 07:24 /boot/initramfs-3.1.5-gentoo.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5515132 Jan  9 07:57 /boot/initramfs-3.2.0-r1.img
root@fireball / #

That's using the dracut tool. Somehow, over 50Mbs is not anywhere close to 80Kbs, or maybe my calculator is broken.

Miss the compile output?  Hint:
