Indeed, and I use Docker myself to improve my own efficiency, and I've seen great stuff built with Docker that has been architected well.
However, it is painfully obvious that without the pressures that used to force most developers to keep their shit sane, there's now more workload for serious users that actually need to untangle this mess in order to support, secure and get stuff deployed.
This is the entire value proposition of all successful technology. Dubious business practices notwithstanding, all successful yet imperfect technology is successful because more people found it let them be lazier than the competition. But in reality of course it's not laziness, it's efficiency. They can get on with other tasks sooner than before.
