You have to login to some docker repository anyways and know the series of commands to actually run it. Cloning a repo and running a shell script is probably a lot easier and faster than that. What kind of work are you doing that requires really fast auto scaling? Is a few minutes to spin up a new instance really that cumbersome? Can you not signal for it to spin up a new instance a tiny bit earlier than when it's needed when you see traffic increases? |

In isolation, yes. But if, for instance, you're already running a container orchestration tool with hundreds of containers, and have CI/CD pipelines already set up to do all of that, it's easier just to tack on another container.
