What about isolation? Of runtime, ports, dependencies?

That's something I've seen many times said by many people but I don't understand. Your code can be mounted from the host into the container. There's no need to rebuild images with each change. Inside such "development" container some form of watcher/auto-rebuild can run and recompile & restart your program after changes are made in code. Isn't it standard practice?

Why would anyone change anything on the machine if the machine is managed by Ansible?

Go with Ansible unless you want to fully dedicate into Nix ecosystem and spend a lot of time learning it (and it's not easy, for example because of lacking documentation). Also Ansible is something you more often find in actual projects/workplace.
