I’d like to have a local cloud that uses lxd VMs by default.
I’ve used juju bootstrap --constraints "mem=2G virt-type=virtual-machine" localhost lxd to boostrap with the lxd provider. From the docs my expectation was that for all future models on this cloud VM machines would be used:
...
If '--constraints' is used, its values will be set as the default
constraints for all future workload machines in the model, exactly as if
the constraints were set with `juju set-model-constraints`.
...
I could see the controller machine indeed was deployed as a VM. However after adding a model and deploying an application a container machine was added for the app.

Am I misunderstanding the docs? Is there another way to have VMs by default?
