Don't get me wrong I think docker adds a lot a value once a system / team goes beyond non-trivial scale. But what I often see are three things: 1. people in pre-mvp stage design and setup a system they think will be able to scale to millions of users when all they have is a landing page/email grab. The time is in my opinion better spent pushing the product forward. 2. people hide problems in containers instead of solving them. E.g. not wanting to deal with outdated versions. 3. people confuse something being easy to use with it being simple.
