We have ksonnet expats on the team (we're all in cloud city -- Seattle), and I've been keeping an eye on that project myself, since I think it got a lot of things right and frankly many of the ideas for Pulumi were inspired by early chats with the Heptio team. But, as you say, why create a new language when an existing one will do -- that was our original stance and it's working great in practice.

Joe Beda will be doing a deep dive on Pulumi on the TGIK videocast tomorrow, so it's a timely opportunity to check it out: https://twitter.com/jbeda/status/1092963296565587969

OP here. I actually wrote a post about Pulumi in this very space a while back

I do think this is more like what we should be doing, but as dismayed to see Pulumi’s free tier get sunsetted

Our free tier is still there and here to stay. What did we do to make you think it's been sunsetted? :-(

Oh! I don’t know where I got that impression from then! perhaps I just thought that we couldn’t use the free tier because of the number of licenses we’d need, but you’re right, it’s still there!
