Bundled dependencies are fine for development build.
But, for making linux distribution packages, it's far better to not include bundled dependencies.
For example, by default, gentoo linux doesn't allow a package build to access the internet.
All dependencies better be downloaded before build.
By allowing people to build pirate ocean without bundled dependencies, you make it easier for linux distribution packagers to make packages for pirate ocean.
