Why would I need a VM? I just install Proxmox on a computer/server and then create as many containers as I need. No VMs at all. VM is a waste.

A VM is more robust as a security boundary than a container is. Still not as good as independent physical hardware but certainly worthwhile.
We're not talking VM vs containers. We're talking VM vs no VM at all in base system.
I understand that. I'm saying that wrapping all the dev containers up inside a single VM serves to further protect the host system from the dev containers.
