Given that the most common case is running docker in server environments in VMs and the sysadmins are root, is this a real issue? Can you tell me an environment where a multi-tenant system runs docker?

Yes, it[1] is[2] a[3] real[4] issue[5] which leads to privilege escalation bugs. It also doesn't help that most containers that Docker is responsible for managing is supposed to be unprivileged, and Docker itself is commonly used as a component for a multi-tenant container runtime.
