As someone who was raised in Operations, but fully bought into the dev/ops kool-aid. I'd argue that most of the unhappiness I've felt in operations positions has been due to being the bottleneck in organizations with lots of development teams that are depending upon our services. It is this, more than any technical benefit that I think systems like Kubernetes provide. This doesn't really answer your not many people know how to run Kubernetes point, but I might argue it is when the cost of managing the infrastructure beneath lots of different application exceeds the cost of learning Kubernetes that one should make the switch. I think this is probably somewhere around 25+ development teams.
