This, a thousand times. If you are deploying the same container 10,000 times, with no modifications - well it makes sense to spend time maintaining that distribution. But if you're using Docker for dev environments (for example) and each one is different... hiiiya you haven't really moved on in terms of maintainability than using Vagrant or any VM setup.
