Someone
did
once joke that Docker is just static linking for millennials. I chuckle because there's a kernel of truth in there. ;)

Yeah, maybe, but the cute thing here is that docker
also
"statically links" the config files, history db, image directory, etc etc.

In the same way a zip file is static linking, I guess, since Docker images are just tarred gzips. But .deb packages can include files and scripts that create directories, too.
