Good question: we actually decided to just not do this for local "statics". But having everything containerized makes it easier to attach editor contexts, work in the same environment as your CI/CD system etc.

The other upside of being fully containerized - even for FE stuff - is that you side-step having to worry about having any sort of "local" dev environment configured beyond Docker/Podman/etc and some environment variables set. It makes onboarding new developers a breeze and eliminates "Weird, works locally on my machine!" types of issues.
