I don't think technical debt is an insult. Docker is a fully-fledged platform, 90% of which is not in use in any Kubernetes cluster. It's bloat. That Swarm and everything else was baked into the platform along with the runtime makes it technical debt for those that necessarily have to support it.

I don't think anyone hates docker. But there is an issue of hubris here.

Then it should be called technical debt of dockershim, right? I don't want to nitpicking, but the tone of the article is definitely negative. And the whole community are not showing the respect to docker as a whole and brand.
