* hardware pass-thru:
* USB device entries under `/dev` are on the wish list, but not currently available.(^Not unless RouterOS itself sees the USB device, as with storage media, which you can bind-mount into the container with “`/container/add mounts=…`”.)
* There is no GPU support, not even for bare-metal x86 installs.
Lack of a management daemon(^`containerd` in modern setups, `dockerd` in old ones) is not in that list because a good bit of Docker’s competition also lacks this, on purpose. Between that and the other items on the list, the fairest comparison is not to fully-featured container *engines* like Docker and Podman but to the container *runner* at their heart:
* **runc**: 14 MiB(^This is the runner underpinning `containerd`, thus also Docker, although it precedes it. Long before they created `containerd`, it underpinned `dockerd` instead. Because it is so primordial, a good many other container engines are also based on it.)
* **crun**: 0.5 MiB(^This is Podman’s alternative to `runc`, written in C to make it smaller. Early versions of Podman once relied on `runc`, and it can still be configured to use it, but the new default is to use the slimmer but feature-equivalent `crun`.)
