There was an issue with debugging Wireshark in vscode on 1809:
Windows 10: Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function. #402

Testing on 20H2 resolved that issue.

Windows Server, version 1909 end of servicing
Should the Dockerfile load 2004 or 20H2?

(Windows 2000 was a great release but would like to have words with Microsoft every time I see Windows 2004 as current version)
