Is updating software in Docker containers useful?
And if you want to make the container quickly secure without bloats, maybe give this a try https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim

Tips for reducing Docker image size
What about https://github.com/slimtoolkit/slim?

package a poetry project in a docker container for production
A last practice that I do not use at all and which may interest you is to use slim toolkit to keep only the useful elements in your final image.

M1: Docker doesn't find shared x64 shared objects even though platform was specified
Distroless images are better left for people with serious need for lightweight images and good Linux knowledge because they require lot of planning with the build so that they stay light and work. If you need lighter images but docker isn't your main tool and you can't afford to take hours and hours of practicing different build strategies you can check docker-slim (https://dockersl.im/). With this tool you can easily size down the images.
