Understand the idea of “packaging” code to some degree, but why would this process need to be done? What is being resused and changing in the process to require scalability and efficiency that is described with the benefits of dockerization? It’s just not registering. Thanks.

The same code could run on my machine but not yours (different OS and softwares could cause this).
With the introduction of cloud computing, most code would need to be run on random machines. How could we prevent this problem? Make the machine create “virtual machine” inside of it that simulate same OS and softwares, then instruct them how to run the code. This way it guarantees that it works on any machine on any clouds hence scalability.
This is the simplest explanation I could come up for ELI5
