My wish is that distros would just boot without requiring an initrd. I
know how to make them for redhat and debian based distros, but the fact
that you can't (easily) cross-build them makes it a very tedious

Debian is easy enough - make sure the drivers for the root
device and root fs is built-in, and you can drop the initrd.
Takes a second or two off the boot, and some more off the build.
