Why Omarchy chose to ignore all the rootless OCI-compliant containers; and also why docker itself isn't rootless yet is a pretty interesting thing to discuss. I'm not aware of the specifics being a Mac user myself, but others in the thread (e.g. here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49500186) say that podman still doesn't work 1:1 with docker exactly.
If you disagree, that's a reasonable thing to discuss; but otherwise just saying "ha ha just use the rootless thing" is missing the point.
If you're not going to use rootless containers, then you simply cannot ship the rootful solution as default in a desktop operating system.
There's absolutely meat on the bones regarding root/rootlessness, but that's not the problem at-hand. The problem is shipping vulnerable defaults, and the case is closed.
