For $5 a month you can get a Linode VPS with 1GM RAM. After the one-off learning curve of Docker you can image these servers and get much more for your money than what any shared hosting provider has to offer. Better still, you're not tied to PHP either.

You're missing the point. The shared PHP host can be $5-$20 per year and handle bursts in excess of 1GB (assuming you're not grossly oversold, which is also common in VPSs).
