> That's just saying how people tend to use it

People tend to use words that describe how they use things to describe what they are.



Well, take a car as an example.

The question is not what you use a car for, but rather how the car is built.


Car is a carriage-like mode of transportation.

The question was "Calling "VM-like" is not helpful because containers have also been called that, it also doesn't explain anything."

I've provided examples why "VM-like" is used to describe jails.
