"The command to remove a container is `docker rm`. And the flags are the same as for `rm`?" "No."

"Wait, you list containers using `docker ps` but you remove them with `docker rm`? So are containers processes or files? Pick one!" "No."

"If Docker containers are like files, then how does that analogy extend to images?" "It doesn't."

"You delete a volume using `docker volume rm`, delete a container using `docker rm` and delete an image using `docker rmi`? Are you idiots?"

Unix: "Programs should do one thing well" Docker: "Client and daemon are the same executable with two unrelated sets of flags"

"And another thing. Shipping containers don't 'run'! This analogy gave you nothing!"

I see the reasoning for using Unix-like command names as a point of familiarity, but unless you fully embrace the analogy it's useless

And willfully mixing the file and process analogies up for Docker containers, leaving nothing for images, is inexplicable and unhelpful

Choosing a good analogy is not easy. And your software may not support ANY analogy far enough for it to be worth doing.

Docker is a pretty cool piece of software whose command line interface makes no sense internally or in the context of existing Unix commands

Docker has `docker {network|volume} {create|inspect|ls|rm}`. Maybe support `container` and `image` in there too?

`docker images` becomes an alias for `docker image ls`, and so on, naturally. Don't break backward compatibility
