See, I don't really agree here. Containers solve a different problem than vms. The biggest issues (at least for me) are 1. The second a dev starts using that VM, it's no longer reproducible. The goal of docker is that a developer can create reproducible images as a part of normal development. 2. I won't be running that QEMU vm in production, but I might very well be running the exact same container image in both development and production.
