proof is in the pudding, as they say, but sounds like I have learned a variety of things this morning:
1. "Since Alfresco Installer was discontinued from Alfresco 5.2, this project provides a command line installer for Alfresco Community 6.1 and Alfresco Community 6.2 to be used in Docker Compose installations." -- not sure the background on this decision, but paired with the other information, seems as though I may have been mistaken about the #Alfresco community.
2. The Alfresco forums are super useful.
3. Even if you know nothing about a project, it might be worth checking their bug tracker. Of course, you need to know enough about the product to understand the bugs, which I probably didn't have when I started this project. Once I got confident enough in my understanding to post on the forum though, I was almost certainly qualified to go bug hunting at that point.
It's funny, because bug reports is where I generally start. I guess the difference here was I wasn't looking for an easy out for a support ticket. I guess when I am doing my own infrastructure work, I should keep some of those fire fighting habits.
That said, since we support Alfresco, as well as #solr, and #Tomcat, in the long term it is probably good that I spent some time beating my head against the wall with it. (we never get Alfresco tickets, but we do get Tomcat tickets)

documentation in the Alfresco project still seems to make a lot of assumptions.
I finally got the docker compose builder to work though. Now let's see if these new docker containers actually work...

I suppose it's on github. I can write a pull request...but I am not sure if that is the best use of my time when I am soon to be going on call

maybe this is worth a new thread, but...
having to do docker-compose down from the same directory where you initially ran it when you only started one docker-compose is rather silly
