why should we care at all?
My main motivation behind this actually something different. I dislike the fact that we have been statically loading several SCSI modules, always, on every system. It contradicts the concept of loadable modules - if we always load module X, why not make it a built-in in the first place?
Isn't this how openSUSE has worked most of its history? It feels like sd_mod was built-in, because everyone needed it (be it for SATA, SCSI or USB). Now that SATA is getting replaced by NVME, there is less of a use for sd_mod.
