I posted a reply on the original post, so I'll add it here as well:

Yes, SmartOS is indeed very interesting and has been around for many years already. They've done some incredible work to get Docker containers to work on their platform. The purpose of the comparison here is to show some of the Linux OSes that are focused on containers (mainly Docker but also others), and it's never gonna be an exhaustive list. SmartOS could've been on the list as another alternative.
