This addition won't make much difference here, but it doesn't seem to harm anything.
When building the docker image though, there's some nice savings:

Yes, good idea. I would actually go as far as avoiding to upgrade dependencies if not strictly needed to be honest, the time it wastes is just too much.
Do you know if there is any good reason why we should not?

I've tried that a couple times. Sometimes it works, but other times what happens is 404 errors when the packages in the existing package lists are no longer available.

I see, that usually happens on ubuntu/debian not when one does not upgrade, but without update.
In theory it should be possible to only perform apt update and not get the 404 errors.
I will be experimenting with that as well in a separate branch :)
