You want to give your VMs the ability to move themselves across the network?

Many bad science fiction stories have taught me that this will only
lead to your VMs escaping onto the Internet, where they will
undoubtedly acquire a GPT-3 AI and become fully sentient threats to
all of humanity.

Seriously, this could lead to some ... interesting ... Sorcerer's
Apprentice type incidents.
