Docker containers usually still reachable even if bound to 127.0.0.1
rkt (and many other container solutions) was introduced after docker was released and became popular... they even mentioned docker's shortcomings as a motivation for the project creation [0]. It had all the same problems as other replacement software: there were plenty of bugs and missing features, documentation was limited, and there are no community to help you (the announcement explicitly mentions "prototype quality release"). None of those would be fatal if it was significantly better than docker, but it was not -- it was basically the same functionality. So almost no one made the switch. It is closed now [1]
And why "rkt"? There were much better alternative container runtimes. For example Sylabs Singularity [2] -- container-as-a-file, instant mounting, etc... I wish more people knew about it.
