More like developer Towers of Babel waiting to collapse on every build attempt. Docker is fine if it's used correctly but it does add a layer of complexity, it doesn't abstract it away.. The way I see it rampantly (ab)used is as a shortcut to get some software up and running by leveraging a public image and passing tech debt for some component of one's system onto the maintainer of the Docker image, then cobbling together multistage builds from those and microservice architectures to try and support this tech debt model. Sometimes it works, many times it breaks, often it turns into complete and utter nightmares to deal with. "Amazing Andy got this fantastically complex system up and running in a week all by their self way under time and budget and it works. Now I just want to add this feature or modify this one thing and you're telling me that's going to take how long?" Yea, I've seen this more times than I care to admit.
