>You don't need a Kubernetes cluster for a little gas station business.

Chick-fil-a has a Kubernetes cluster at each location. Maybe its not so far fetched. Gas stations are all franchises of a major corp.

I don't think being pedantic is appropriate for good discussion.

The lesser point is that, as things like Kubernetes is for large scale software development models, a small business will find it detrimental to copy Google's internal organizations and practices. They don't have the same genetics and they're playing different games.

And, the more important point, there's no room or space for any new, neo-Google to form now. It's over, as they say. The end of history, I guess.
