I'm not in the industry, but modern ports seem to me to be optimized for offloading ships with cargo stacked high in shipping containers on deck without significant obstructions interfering with cranes. Not ships with a bunch of masts for sails.

So there are non container options but if they could use containers for break bulk they would so the efficiency of this is probably not very high.
