Containers are the ultimate "works for me" in software development. My experience it makes for more fragile software that depends on its environment being perfect and nothing else will do.

It sounds like you've confused containers with not containers, friend.

Well no, containers allow you to know exactly the environment it runs into, no matter what the actual host environment is, you can run your program on windows, Linux, Mac or any other Docker supported system and it will work the same, I don't see how that's fragile.
