> What makes you think the government is remotely qualified to run a canning operation, a logistics operation, a warehousing operation, an HR operation, and a finance operation for peaches?
The DoD (for one) runs lots of logistics, warehousing, HR (2.8M), and finance stuff.
Have you ever looked at the prices they pay? Government is the last place I'd look for competent management, anyone good/noncorrupt would be making 10x in the private sector.

E.g.,

It provides vulnerability and malware detection, along with continuous monitoring of container images. By integrating with the continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) systems that build container images, Container Security ensures every container reaching production is secure and compliant with enterprise policy.
I disagree. VMs are better isolated to precisely the extent that (a) the attack surface is lower and (b) the implementation is simpler and thus less buggy.
Hardware virtualization has a strong effect on (b), but it’s not at all a foregone conclusion that it’s strictly in the direction of being more straightforward and thus more secure. And hardware features like fancy device passthrough encourages applications with a very, very large attack surface that has historically been full of holes.
One needs to ask which "shareholder" are we talking about? The pension fund that wants steady cash flow for decades? The retirement-saver, who wants to grow a big bucket for retirement? The already-retired, who wants less growth and more wealth preservation? The hedge fund who wants a couple of quarters good numbers to raise their take of the 2-and-20? The options or day trader?
"Investor heterogeneity" is a thing.
There is no Platonic "shareholder" with one set of needs.
