Description

Users often don't update their docker, so sometimes we depend on a more recent feature.

We already do a docker pre-flight check, perhaps we can check for a minimum version and require the user to update docker app?

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Docker pre-flight check in the CLI and determine how Docker's installed version is obtained. Define the minimum supported version and make the check warn or require an update when it is unmet; done means the pre-flight check reliably handles versions below that threshold.
