[Question] Why does everyone seem to dislike containerized packages? ( kbin.social )

Mostly because they're uneducated fools, that haven't any actual idea what the hell they're talking about.

Unless you're pulling sources, and building everything yourself, everything you get from most major distributions is "pre-compiled".

People hate anything new, they fear change, and they like drama, that's all it is.

It is disingenuous to simply state that people think new = bad. There are definitely both advantages and disadvantages to the current containerized packaging platforms / formats at the moment. Some of which, some people may see as greater positives, negatives than others.
