Thought the same thing. Finding the root cause is easier when you don't have to debug dozens of abstraction layers (KVM, Containerd/Docker, Kubernetes, etc).

Operating at this scale you can assume that all these things you mentioned do exist :)
It's all public: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_infrastructure

You can even get access to devops/SREs tickets (and IRC messages)

Docker? You’re probably right. K8s? Wouldn’t be so sure. Would like to hear from the horse’s mouth though.

Edit: looks like it’s used. Wonder if it’s more tooling than production traffic. No time to dig further.
