: I stumbled into this page, and as an industry veteran of multiple decades, I very much agree with the "dangerous misconception" statement above. OS containers are about *isolation* not *virtualization*. These are distinct concepts in the tech world, and this page/article is incorrectly conflating them in a way that will hurt industry discourse and general understanding for its readers. AsContainer I'misolation can only be considered "virtualization" in the weakest sense of the word virtualization, which is a sense that is not typically used in the industry because it then becomes a wikipediauseless editorword. To give an analogy, howprocess doisolation disputesis about fundamentalpermission: definitionswithin oran "termsisolated ofprocess art"namespace, getprocesses resolved?do not Dohave Ipermission justto addsee processes from outside of that namespace. By analogy, on a "Thistypical isfilesystem, classificationthe orpermissions definitionof isthe disputed"filesystem are unlikely to textallow oruser labelA to deeply traverse into user B's personal home area. Would one then say that "the page?filesystem permissions [[User:VDave420|VDave420]]are ([[Useran talk:VDave420|talk]])OS-level 23:57,virtualization 10because Marchfrom 2023a user A process's perspective it cannot access user B's storage resources and thus is seeing a 'virtualized disk that doesn't contain user B's resources'"? Of course not. (UTC)
As I'm not typically a wikipedia editor, how do disputes about fundamental definitions or "terms of art" get resolved? Do I just add a "This is classification or definition is disputed" text or label to the page? [[User:VDave420|VDave420]] ([[User talk:VDave420|talk]]) 23:57, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
