> am quite happy to not be building them anymore.

Me too. I go back to within about 3 years of that.

But I expect my distro to handle this for me now.

If the distro compiled and updated the kernel for my hardware then there's be no need for an initramfs.

While initramfs was a simplistic kludge, the UKI idea does not fix it, it wraps a kludge inside a fugly ball of lack of understanding.
