Research direction

Reproduce the issue on Photon OS by running systemctl start docker while connected over SSH, then inspect the Docker service and SSH/network behavior around the disconnect. Done means identifying the cause of the lost connection and documenting or fixing the behavior, with a way to verify that starting Docker no longer breaks SSH.
