"Why would that be the case?"

One argument could be that their moat is mostly brand. And, increasingly, other brands are working around them. Like Kubernetes. They already offer non-docker runtimes. They could, at some point, offer and promote their own packaging tool too. People might use a K8S tool solely because it's the "default setting".

I have a ton of docker images already that work perfectly fine. Why would I switch to something else?

There will be more created in the future, than was in the past.

The OCI standards make it so that it doesn't matter if you switch or not. Your images will work anywhere with any tool (aka Cloud Providers, Kubernetes, Podman, Buildah, etc.) Everybody has OCI compliant tools, even Docker - Docker founded the OCI.

Same point though. If docker works, why switch to anything else?

"The Kubernetes project is excited to announce kocker, a new docker compatible image management tool. Kocker will support features you've been asking for, like non-priv-by-default containers, enhanced performance in k8s..."

Made up, but I imagine something like that.

These container images will continue to work.
