There are some reasons. Networking can get messed up, so Docker Desktop "fixed that" for you, but the dirty secret is it's basically a Linux VM with Docker CE and some convenience network routes.
Youre talking about Linux containers on Windows, I think commenter above was referring to windows containers on Windows, which is its own special hell for lucky folks like me.
Otherwise I totally agree. Ive done both setups without docker desktop.
