Beginners will always gravitate to what is easier.
The upstream tools (Docker in this case) must orient themselves more towards the newbies, not only the pros, if we want to see the progress here.
Personally, as a non-IT guy, I find myself fighting uphill battles every time I want to do something seemingly simple, because the basic tools we're offered are not made with common folk in mind. And I'm sort of an enthusiast - most people just won't bother if it's not plug&play, they don't have time and energy to figure everything out.
