Docker - enabling systemd on centos:7

I'm experimenting with enabling systemd on the docker centos:7 image.  Here's a simple example getting the centos7 systemd image set up, then building a docker image with nginx using that, and then running it.  

Environment:
CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core)
Docker version 19.03.1, build 74b1e89

centos7-systemd.Dockerfile

# systemd is included with centos:7 but not enabled by default - START
# https://hub.docker.com/_/centos:
FROM centos:7
ENV container docker
RUN (cd /lib/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants/; for i in *; do [ $i == \
systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service ] || rm -f $i; done); \
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/*;\
rm -f /etc/systemd/system/*.wants/*;\
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/local-fs.target.wants/*; \
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/*udev*; \
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/*initctl*; \
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/basic.target.wants/*;\
rm -f /lib/systemd/system/anaconda.target.wants/*;
VOLUME [ "/sys/fs/cgroup" ]
CMD ["/usr/sbin/init"]
# systemd is included with centos:7 but not enabled by default - END

centos7-systemd-nginx.Dockerfile

# This dockerfile is used when running cypress during a commit to the remote repo
FROM local/centos7-systemd

# install yum dependencies ansible
RUN yum install -y epel-release \
  && yum install -y nginx && systemctl enable nginx.service

EXPOSE 80

CMD ["/usr/sbin/init"]

Build images:

docker build --rm -t local/centos7-systemd -f centos7-systemd.Dockerfile .
docker build -t local/centos7-systemd-nginx -f centos7-systemd-nginx.Dockerfile .

Run container:

docker run -it --rm -d -v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:ro -v /run -p 80:80 --name web local/centos7-systemd-nginx

Test that nginx is running: 

curl http://localhost/index.html

It returned an error HTML page, but I know nginx is running!
