I might argue when working a bug report, the uname tells you exactly which
config it is, and you don't need their /boot to get it. It is in our rpm, if
not, they wouldn't have a val

I find this useful when working on a bug report. By getting /proc/config.gz,
I'm 100% sure I've got the correct config. No space for mishandling a script

I'd argue that if you're running 1000 VMs, 50 MB hardly matters. The kernels
are what, 30 GB at that point? 0.1% is still 0.1%.

All of these reasons are why I do not recommend using the `/proc` config entry

redhat/configs/common: Turn on CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC
Some users expect to check /proc/config.gz instead of
/boot/config-$(uname -r), and both are valid approaches. In fact, one
could argue it is easier to trust the contents of /proc/config.gz than
it is to trust the config in
