IMHO the real advancement was the implicit snapshot Docker takes after every line in a Dockerfile.

Virtual Machine builder scripts like Packer could do this… but don’t.

It’s a choice, not an inherent technology limitation.



I have the opposite opinion, the implicit overlay filesystem in Docker is an unnecessary and frustrating complication.
