I don't think anybody is suggesting containers are bad for ephemeral exploration, development, the things you mention. The argument is what you use it for when it comes to production. For example if you're modeling machines with docker you're already using it wrong. Even docker considers that an anti-pattern.

I've invested some time to learn about best practices and have been using docker in production for many months with completely satisfactory results. I am not seeing a rational discussion here.

Me neither, all I see is an avalanche of FUD by what seems to be "old-timers" in this forum. Also mind the fact they haven't been down-voted. This tells me the people with down-voting abilities and this FUD-spreading old-timer group overlap greatly. The main commenters spreading FUD have karmas of ~1500, ~2500, ~12400, ~2900.

It's not so emotionally satisfying to talk about "how does The Thing help you concretely and what concrete difficulties have you run into," and way more fun to talk about either "it's all just hype, everyone's a stupid newbie" or "The Thing is total amazeballs and totally teh future you guys."
