This is why containers are great IMO. It's meant to solve the problem of "well it works on my machine"

Yeah but it's also nice not having to rely on a container for stuff to work at all, especially when you're doing development.

While I can dev in a container, I don't enjoy the XP nearly as much due to the current state of tooling re remote debuggers.

I do ship containers as a top level .exe equivalent.
