A small team should use the central k8s platform if it exists and it's the company base infrastructure layer.

Everything else would only mean less golden path support, less synergies etc.

By "small team" I assume they meant a start-up - i.e the team is the company's entire dev.

As someone who works in a small team within a large corp where we use k8s for everything large and small, I did not read that statement as applying to me.
