Getty serves the same purpose it does on real hardware
Perhaps it's a matter of perspective. getty does start a shell, but it's purpose (from my perspective) isn't to let authorized users in so much as it is to keep unauthorized users out. In a container, it can't really do that because anyone who can access the container "console" can also run arbitrary applications (including a login shell) in the container.
(Of course, I could be wrong about that with LXC. I'm more familiar with docker / podman.)
