Does this project aim for docker cli and api compatibility? Searching for Docker on that page yields no results. Though in their example, they do show an example of a Dockerfile referencing docker.io without shame.

Typical Apple behavior, I guess, but grating to see in a OSS tool.

This is a weird take, imho. Should they feel shame for using Dockerfiles in their OCI-standard-compliant tool? Would you be happier if they introduced subtly incompatible Applefiles?

Why are they obliged to emulate the Docker CLI? This limits them to just shadowing someone else's product. Just use Docker if you want their CLI/API, it uses the same virtualization framework under the hood on Macs.

Isn’t Containerfile a bit more neutral ground?
