Makes you wonder whether Canonical has any idea about operating servers. Auto-updating packages is the last thing you want. Doing that for a container engine, without building in some jitter to avoid the scenario you described is absolutely insane.
Who even uses snap in production? If I squint my eyes I can see the use for desktops, but why insist on it for server technologies as well?
