> bind mount the docker socket

Bind-mounting /var/run/docker.sock gives 100% root access to anyone that can write it. It's a complete non-starter for any serious deployment, and we should not even consider it at any time.

Sure, but sometimes that's what you intend. Docker isn't always used for, nor is it particularly designed to be a security / sandboxing solution. If I'm running a tool as root that interacts with the docker daemon, I might choose to run it in a container still.
