All of the items in your mono-container advantage list go away if you consider the alternative of having a bunch of separate images that share a common base image. Image layers are immutable and get deduplicated/cached individually when stored or sent over the network. For example if you pull 10 images with a common base to the same host, the first image might be slow to download but after that docker only fetches the deltas between it and the rest.
