Research direction
Start by reproducing the documented docker run command on Apple Silicon with Docker Desktop, then inspect the PowerShell 7.4 Debian 11 image and its runtime configuration around the reported Regex1_Scan and internal CLR error. Done means Write-Warning Test produces the expected warning without terminating the PowerShell process.
