I can't tell how much of this is sarcasm. Turning what started out as a problem of "How do you load arbitrary remote TROFF sources into man" into "throw docker at it" because someone suggested an intermediate solution of "apt" which introduces security issues and no one posed that there might be an alternative that obviates any need for containerization. I mean these two things could be further from each other on the scale of incredibly lightweight to massively heavyweight.

Or maybe this is a microcosm of why docker and kuberwhatever happens so much.
