Ask HN: Why not just running OpenClaw in Docker?

Everyone in town is talking about running OpenClaw/Clawd on a VPS or a dedicated burner machine (e.g. a Mac mini), for obvious security reasons.

What I don't see discussed much is Docker. On macOS it already runs inside a Linux VM, and the setup can hardened even more (in principle): no bind mounts, no /var/run/docker.sock, non-root user, read-only filesystem, tight resource limits, restricted networking, etc.

Given that, what are the concrete reasons people still consider Docker unsafe?
