`docker build` is free, and faster to type than the fake outrage in the github issues and the dicator-calling below in this thread.

With docker build comes a whole slew of dependencies that you wouldn't have with official images. You need some place to host the image, or build on the servers you use for deployment, and cross platform compilation (i.e. ARM images) becomes an issue.
It'll take more time than just typing out a comment on HN to get all of that in play. Actually getting a docker registry of your own set up with auth and everything can easily take half an hour, and adding+testing periodic sync and compile steps in your CI/CD will take another couple of hours if you're not set up for it.
Hardly the end of the world, though. Reminds me of the infamous "why can't people on github just give me the .exe" reddit troll post.
