Docker itself is part of that problem, not separate to it. They willingly accepted almost $200 million in venture capital. We all know what the VC game is. If they can't turn that $200M into a $5B+ exit, they lost.

Well, the VCs lost. Presumably, the people at Docker -- including the people who would do fantastically well with an exit that also made VCs happy -- are drawing paychecks, in some cases substantial ones, and will have in many cases done tolerably well (rather than have "lost") if no VC-friendly exit ever occurs.
