Docker Linux Kernel Compatibility with Oracle Database 12c EE

Hello,

Oracle Database 12c EE image is available at Docker Hub. I would to run this 12c image on "Docker Desktop for Windows". Docker Desktop for Windows uses Linux Kernel 4.9.184 but the latest supported Linux Kernel for 12c is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Kernel Version 3.10.0-1062. Could I run 12c on Kernel 4.9.184 for self study environment or I have to use only supported Host OS for Docker? I tried to run 12c image on "Docker Desktop for Windows" and connection to database works and I can execute SQL statements but I also had some errors and some things were not working as I expected so I'm wondering is it because of Docker Host OS Kernel Version... Will I have a lot of strange issues because of using Docker with the wrong Kernel version?
