AFAIK the container approach is more common for UNIX alike operating systems, than for Microsoft. Let me show you something. Do you want to run tar from the rolling release Arch Linux, or do you prefer to use tar from a recent Ubuntu LTS release or maybe tar without xattr option from a vintage Suse? 3 Linux installs on one machine, even without using the container's boot option, a simple direct access from one Linux to another is just a 'systemd-nspawn -qD /mnt/ponit' away.
