Containers solve the problem of clashing library versions needed by different applications running on a single host (and I know there are other ways to solve this).
This is really not a new problem :) I remeber dealing with shared libary versioning issues from no long after I started in IT in the 90's and it's been a problem since.

Solving that problem seems like a win to me.
