> First off, why are you using Ansible/Packer against Windows Container images ? You wouldn't fault Linux Containers for being terrible to use with Packer/Ansible because you shouldn't be doing that.

You can build Linux containers just fine with Packer/Ansible. But to your point I already stated why I use Ansible and Packer for container images: "if you're already using those to configure VM images and Ansible to perform config mgmt on VMs"

I currently build a number of images with Packer and Ansible across Linux and Windows. I choose not to rewrite all of that from scratch in a crummy Dockerfile when I can just have Packer and Ansible make the images alongside everything else they're already making.
