I understand that I am not a Moode developer. I'm not making a demand here, or a feature request. Just curious if there are plans to make Moode Audio a repository instead it's own OS.
No plans to do that because there is no compelling reason to do so. Simply being annoyed by something generally does not make a good case for making a significant change. If there is a specific reason you need to bump the OS or kernel for example to get a new I2S driver, improved component etc then let me know.
moOde just uses stock RaspiOS and Raspberry Pi kernel but we carefully integrate and test specific versions and configurations of many components and also specific patched kernel drivers. This creates a lot of added value and helps maintain the stability of the build. Occasionally RaspiOS or kernel changes break the build and when that happens we have to adapt the moOde code to handle the changes.
