Forking Docker will lead to more fragmentation

Or it will lead to more choice, I do feel overwhelmed when I go to an American grocery store and I see an entire aisle full of bags of chips, and I say to myself why? Who needs bbq flavor or even kale chips? But somebody apparently does. So even if it nows takes more time to choose, choice is giving everybody exactly what they want. Anyway I guess only time can tell and predictions are difficult to make. Just in the recent past, there were good and bad results out of forks as this article describes <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.makeuseof.com&#x2F;tag&#x2F;forking-good-great-ugly&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.makeuseof.com&#x2F;tag&#x2F;forking-good-great-ugly&#x2F;</a>

I see it more as market segmentation between enterprise and SMB development needs. Although honestly, for the companies that appear to feel it might be worth the effort to fork Docker, there are already other options: at the point it makes sense to fork Docker, building a different solution on LXC is not much further away.
