Good point. So what's the reason that debian kernel images come with an initrd? An example I can think of is vesafb: in order for that to be used it must be either builtin or in initrd. Right?

The kernels Debian provides need to run on a broad number of machines hence the use
of an initrd which loads the modules needed for a particular machine.
