If GP thinks the selling point of podman is that it doesn't have to run as root, but to actually do anything meaningful they have to run it as root after all, why would they use podman?
Many people say that, but don't feel like it's very important.
Having a deamon or not is a technical detail that most people do not care about in my opinion. And it has advantages too, like accessing Docker remotely or from another VM on the same host, or directly from the host which is nice for Docker on Mac or Windows.
