so the application crashes inside the container, and the container is restarted, vs the application crashes outside the container and it is restarted.

What's the difference?

Well, the difference is that someone could PoTenTiAlLY spawn a shell if they get their way. So between server access as a user and container access (if it has a shell), it does make a difference.

A good book on this was "Hacking: The Art of Exploitation".

My argument though is that irssi is that old, I think automatic file receiving (DCC) is off by default and it has sensible defaults and a long history of being reliable(?)
