If dynamic linking is so great, why do we constant, constantly have these

Because the problem is not in dynamic versus static.
We would have exactly the same discussions if they were statically linked.
Only it would be 'the app XYZ does not start, fails with library not
found'.
which would be a system message.
Static linking to me means the executable is self-contained and doesn't rely
on any external libraries.
Maybe you mean "static" as in "the executable has the dynamic library name
hardcoded and it will be automatically loaded by ld instead of dynloading it
explicitly"?
Yes.
