Complexity on top of complexity makes things harder to debug in my opinion. I’ve never had trouble debugging library issues and they’ve never happened to me in a container. Even easier is to not mix tools in a container anyway. Less is more.

It can be a tool used as a dependency of your app. And I feel like you can make the same claim about locks. They just introduce complexity and make debugging harder, race condition never happened to me anyway... It's about ensuring edge cases don't bite you when you don't expect it.

If you can prove it doesn't apply, then sure, why not install globally.
