It's like for a few years the whole computing world forgot about security updates and went on a container bender, when woke up one morning realizing what they've done, and then started adding various clunky solutions on top: mutable tags, various tooling to take apart container images and inspect the junk in there, notify and scan for issues etc.

You mean like proposing JSON as XML replacement, rebuilding from scratch all the XML tooling including validation, and when almost done with it, replacing JSON with YAML?
Exactly! YAML apparently is now terrible as well, but not sure what's next in the pipeline, toml perhaps?

I think it would be funny if we reverted back to s-expressions and started the cycle all over.
