I expect the danger is that someone will lose money and blame the developers for as-yet unforeseen issues which can only be smoked out after a few years of heavy use. But a specific danger would be interesting to hear.

Docker maintainer here. That's basically it. There's no specific danger that we're worried about - just engineering best practices.
As long as we're not comfortable operating Docker at large scale ourselves (we run quite a lot of containers in production at dotCloud), we won't recommend that others do it.
