To be perfectly honest, in this scenario, there isn't much of an advantage.
The container approach is lighter weight, and I found it easier to manage the configuration via Dockerfiles. Managing a full VM with the OS install is a bit of a pain.
That being said, I worked at an organization that did the VM approach using Vagrant. It wasn't as nice as the VS Code/Docker approach, but the results were similar.
