Why would it not be an option?

I am not an SRE but I do know that we are actually able to just throw away our k8s cluster and it will be recreated from scratch.

In fact our dev environments work the same and I literally did this a couple if days ago because I had a similar problem to what you are describing. Throwing it away and letting it reinitialize from scratch fixed it.

You don't _want_ to do that in prod for sure. But it's a great thing to have in your back pocket, if it's tested well (disclaimer: I have no idea if and when they last tried this for prod ;))
