Should I respond metaphorically?
> A macos app is running in a sandbox and runs in a conceptually similar way to docker.
A Mac App fundamentally has access to system libraries and leverages those. A Docker container is designed to ignore the system and builds its own environment.
If you run a Docker container on a Mac or Windows, you are now running 3 operating systems. The host OS, the VM, and the Docker image.
This is not the same as a Mac App. Literally, figuratively, or hypothetically.
