Wouldn't an immutable OS be overall a pretty good idea for a stable server?

I honestly don't know a ton about immutable distros other than that they let you front-load some difficulty in getting things set up in exchange for making it harder to break. I was just surprised that the distro of choice was Bazzite, since its target audience seems to be gamers.
