   Hi, I'd like to work on this documentation issue if the remaining scope is still relevant.

   I'll first audit the current documentation and examples for copying files to and from containers. If the gap remains, I plan to add code-included examples covering the currently supported copy APIs and explain when they are preferable to bind mounts.

   I'll keep the change focused on the current public API and ensure the examples are built or tested by the existing documentation pipeline.
