Yeah makes sense, with docker in the mix the things uv brings are less interesting, although using uv for small one-off scripts is also an interesting application (there is a way of making uv your shebang, declaring sependencies within the python file and essentially getting a uv-ran python script that will auto-download the needed dependencies).

Over the years I encountered many situations where other solutions (pip+pyenv, poetry, easy_install) lead to hour long stops in dependency hell. Meanwhile uv just works. Even the most complicated projects I transfered over since I decided to make the switch worked first try.

I am not the person who has to go for the newest shiniest thing just because, but if that new shiny thing does the job instead of wasting my time sign me up.
