Actually, I think it's quite the opposite. You can more easily use checkpoints and savepoints via volumes. Data is persisted, easily backed up and shared between containers. You can push around files safely via CLI or prepopulate volumes by a container. More over, I don't think the current master would even work on a Windows host OS at all, which is an anitpattern for Docker generally. Quick summary of the benefits of volumes over bind mounts (from docker [site](https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/)): Volumes are easier to back up or migrate than bind mounts. You can manage volumes using Docker CLI commands or the Docker API. Volumes work on both Linux and Windows containers. Volumes can be more safely shared among multiple containers. Volume drivers let you store volumes on remote hosts or cloud providers, to encrypt the contents of volumes, or to add other functionality. New volumes can have their content pre-populated by a container. Volumes on Docker Desktop have much higher performance than bind mounts from Mac and Windows hosts. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
