Yes, this is intentional.
The point is that the SBo "tradition" is that builds only _install_
packages, services, programs, modules, but don't "activate them by
default", in order to avoid unintentionally damaging whatever fragile
setup the user has.

I don't mind improving the README, but I am not exactly sure what is
missing. Doesn't the "runbook" give enough info on how to run aarch64
docker containers on x86_64 Slackware64, including running
`update-binfmts --import` ?

Could you send a git patch/diff with your intended improvement to my
email, and I will gladly accept it, if it makes sense.
