It does look like it! Personally I'm off the k8s train and don't currently have a use-case but best of luck!

feedback: why make a clear distinction between "magic node" and "BYON"? Two new concepts to learn when I feel a value-prop for some users would be to not have think about these distinctions? (Just talking about wording and communication here - can you get the value prop across with less reification?)

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve been thinking about the wording too—and you might be right, perhaps highlighting the Magic Node as the mainstay vs BYON being a smaller, side feature might help sell the main value prop. I’ll try clearing that up!

Thanks again!

Cheers! What I meant was : Skip even naming/introducing the two words/concepts at all.

"Managed node" and "self-hosted nodes" are examples of more familiar concepts you can utilize to communicate.

Ah, I see! That helps a ton, thanks for the tip!
