This is the opposite in my experience: Docker lets me focus on the business problem by making deployment easier.

Docker lets me focus on cool problems like "which commands can I use to free up space on this cloud-based container-running VM, given that there are 0 bytes free, and many tools will crash if they can't make a tempfile/dir?".

At least, that's been my experience when maintaining a mess of other people's Docker crap.
