Is human readable IP that important though? I mean even though I know about CIDR it's still hard for me to intuitively think about it, and I will say by far the part of kubernetes I dislike the most is figuring out the networking layer design. I feel like the only reason we need human readable IP's in the first place is for understanding all this NAT stuff that we wouldn't particularly need if we had bigger IP ranges

It kind of is, yes.

But at this point I'll take what I can get. Just give it to me already.

the short answer is yes. the long answer is: are humans involved? yes, then yes.
