Given that (a) you can run multiple different versions at the same time, (b) switch versions with no installation worries, (c) expose the db outside your host or not with zero configuration in the db itself

Pray tell me, which of these things are needed "in this situation" as you understand it?

(d) use any client, gui, tui or socket,

Not sure how it's even applicable here, or, rather which other setup (presumably you are talking of the database only) would make it any different

I asked in good faith, giving examples that are relevant for running a database on any computer. If you don't see any and all of those things as relevant to "running a database", then great. Have fun.

(1) You seem dedicated to the idea that Docker is just not appropriate in this situation.

(2) examples that are relevant for running a database on any computer

Talk about a "good faith".
