One limitation I have observed is that this VM can't host another VM itself.


Reportedly M2 supports nested virtualization though.


But why would you ever want to?


Docker desktop for macOS requires a linux vm on the macOS host, so nested virtualization is required if you want to use docker desktop inside the macOS guest.

Other Tools like multipass kind and minikube on the guest will not work


It’s helpful when spinning up labs, or testing infrastructure deployments
