OK, my bad, I should compare LXC which is basically chroot, like jails or zones.
What I am trying to say is that chrooted envs for process segregation (like running a separate mysql instance) is not such new and exciting idea, and it has more disadvantages than benefits, at least for production use. (It is substantially slower and unpredictable due to memory access and I/O bottlenecks).
On the other hand, for 98% of Docker = "containerization" (a new shiny meme) = cool, without even a bit of understanding what LXC is.
