But wine is no container software.

Technically true, but programs loaded via WINE can be made to act somewhat containerised, and can provide incomplete information as to what else is running. Maybe containerisation is the wrong word though, maybe 'sandbox' instead?

Good luck detecting Linux native programs from WINE-loaded Windows executables.
