Windows and macOS run Linux containers by starting a virtual machine that runs
Linux. The time those take to start is in the order of seconds, not tenths of
seconds like Clear Containers or tenths of milliseconds like regular
containers.
Clear Containers on Linux takes advantage that the *host* is Linux to bypass a
lot of things. It doesn't run a BIOS, for instance, and simply executes a
specially-prepared vmlinux binary inside the VM. There's no disk I/O --
everything is Direct Access (DAX) just like on tiny microcontrolers.
Making that run on macOS or Windows requires changes to the host OS itself.

And then we added Vulkan. So, unlikely, though I think OpenGL 4 is a complete
superset of OpenGL ES 2. Maybe of ES3 too?
