What programmers care about, first and foremost, is making things work. Distributions provide basically two things to programmers: libraries that programmers could (easily, usually) bundle, and distro-specific breakage. If you're developing in-house, more of the latter than the former. Docker and Vagrant are efforts to address this, and you're not going to get anywhere by downplaying the real problems that bundling solves.

What programmers care about, first and foremost, is making THEIR STUFF work. And they don't give a damn what else they break to achieve that goal. They are intently and narrowly focused on their tiny little corner of the world and have no regard at all for the bigger picture, the systems on which their code will one day have to run.

There. FTFY.
