To add to this, for me it's not specifically about the ease of setup which isnt that much easier (although it's nice that it's standardized). It's more about the teardown if it's not something for you. Services can leave a lot of residuals in the system, files in different places, unwanted dependencies, changes in system configuration. Removing a docker container is very clean, with the remaining stuff easily identifiable.

Makes trying new stuff a way less troublesome.
