Any tag like ubuntu:20.04 -> this tag gets overwritten every time there's a new release (which is very often)
https://hub.docker.com/r/nvidia/cuda -> these get removed (see e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73513439/on-what-conditi...)
You gave example of nvidia and not ubuntu itself. What's more, you are referring to devel(opment) version, i.e. "1.0-devel-ubuntu20.04" which seems like a nightly so it's expected to be overriden (akin to "-SNAPSHOT" for java/maven)?
Besides, if you really need utmost stability you can use image digest instead of tag and you will always get exactly the same image...
Do you have an example that isn't Nvidia? They're infamous for terrible Linux support, so an egregious disregard for tag etiquette is entirely unsurprising.
