we'd really benefit from getting more accurate numbers.
Basically, all I want is that UUID plus CPU arch plus ID,
VERSION_ID,
and VARIANT_ID from /etc/os-release. (And, I'd also like to start using
VARIANT_ID for labs, spins, docker images, etc.)
What do you think? Does the suggested plan make sense?
What about forgeries?
