It is not just a new installer. It is also new install targets (TPM FDE) that require new squashfs layers.

There are some gains to be made by reducing duplication between some of the layers (minimal.standard.enhanced-secureboot.squashfs and minimal.enhanced-secureboot.squashfs should not ship the snaps, we should figure out how to put all of these in the minimal layer as preseeding and ensure they get removed from the target when doing a non-enhanced-secureboot install; and kernel debs should not be duplicated between the live layer and the package pool). But this work is not going to be done in mantic.
