That... was not a very convincing article! It came across as a frustrated op-ed where the author intentionally focused on the negatives rather than steel manning their own argument. Any potential positives were handwaved as out-of-scope.

VSCode devcontainers are awesome. They are my default way of working on any new project.

Being able to blow away a container and start with a fresh, reproducible setup - at any time - saves so many headaches.

It kind of seemed like this might have been the first time the author tried doing anything with Docker containers. And yeah... if you're trying to work with and modify a Docker container the same way you'd work with a VM, you're going to have a bad time.
