I feel like you largely understand the space, and mostly have answers to your questions already. You might find Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox an informative read, even if it’s about the Mac equivalent rather than Windows and about Docker packaged as a VM rather than Kubernetes specifically.

The docker-desktop-data distro is used by the docker-desktop distro as the backing store for container images etc. When docker is run under Hyper-V the same result is achieved by mounting a VHD in the Hyper-V image but this isn’t possible with WSL2. To quote from the docker blog introducing the new wsl2 backend: This will … Read more
