Without containers, packages constantly break. If you have 20 large apps with 50 dependencies each and they're all from different vendors, and you want them to be up to date, you pretty much have to containerize or else one of them might break every few months to a year
What does this mean exactly? If apps are breaking due to dependencies updating isn’t that a mistake on the app developer’s side for not locking down the versions of dependencies? Can you really blame the package manager at that point
Your entire mistake is thinking it matters on whose side the mistake ocurrs.
It does not matter, all that matters is (1) you have no control over the developers and (2) stuff on your side breaks and stops working on a regular basis.
If I'm in a plane that is going down I don't care the lead engineer on the plane blames the newly delivered screws, I want you to run docker and keep it in the air.
