> A tool that adds work wouldn't be very useful, would it?

Sure could, if it provides benefits that outweight the additional work. Insurance companies will happily pay a couple more IT-specialists if it reduces the amount of cases they have to cover by an arbitrary percentage. Tools very much can serve other purposes than reducing the friction of human attention.

If you can containerize your infra and thereby mitigate threat vectors that may put your entire enterprise at risk if exploited, that's a good business call to make, even if the cost of your IT-department gets inflated by some margin.
