That's fair. And you're absolutely right that the technology has been around for ages.

I would ask - why is it now that it's actually being used outside of the few boutique scenarios that came before?

I personally think it's a change at various levels of the industry (from the speed of ideation->delivery, inefficiency in process, dc consolidation, efficiency/density) and Docker is an integral piece in helping alleviate those problems
