PUID/PGID support has been removed and running as root by default weakens security - what is the justification for this?

Am wondering if over the years this broke ? If you pull the old container, how does it behave?

S6 has clearly got the option to run as non-root. The scripts for establishing rights are quite tractable. What's up with not allowing an alternative to the root user? Why does this not feature prominently in the README.md?

[NorthernMan54]

I'm 100% with the not running as root, and recently made changes to the next Raspbian Image in the same regards ( going forward it will force local account creation ). So going to add this to the look at further list.
