you may want to look up how many programs had to be re-linked and re-released in the TW release where glibc changed.
That number was zero.

Dear Tumbleweed users, I want to inform you upfront of a few specialties: * The snapshot is going to be large, in the number of packages to 'update' (mostly rebuild counters) and thus also megabytes. * The snapshot is the first to be based on glibc 2.33 https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-February/122207.html ====== Because glibc changed to 2.33, a large number of packages had to be updated. Zero != large number.
