I'd like more clarity on this:

> The advantage over docker here is that (when using Flakes) Nix builds are completely reproducible. Docker containers may be isolated, but surprisingly they are not deterministic out of the box. With some work you can make docker deterministic, but thats what you need, its much easier to use Nix.

as the whole purpose of the Dockerfile is to create a reproducible environment.
