    When you regularly create and destroy a few dozen servers you care about reproducibility of installations and configurations. But even when you only have your home pc your drive can die at any point and you don’t want to figure out again how to fix that weird bug you once had or realize that you missed your docker images in your backup regimen.

    If you nuke my pc from orbit I have it set up again in 10mins. Exactly. Every single file.
