When did it become impossible to run a VM next to other services on an existing machine? As they said, Home Assistant OS works great with that setup and it's rock solid in my experience.
Running a full resource hungry VM when a container is enough is downright silly.
And the HassOS you mention had to go through a lot of work from HASS team to allow for full container runtime so it gets the functionality UniFi's approach has out of the box.
That would make it impossible to deploy it next to other services on an existing machine... why would you want less flexibility?

Or just a docker-compose file, since it's already in container format.
