Except it isn't just "a way to run a bunch of containers across a few machines".

It seems that way but in reality "resource" is a generic concept in k8s. K8s is a management/collaboration platform for "resources" and everything is a resource. You can define your own resource types too. And who knows, maybe in the future these won't be containers or even linux processes? Well it would still work given this model.

But now, what if you really just want to run a bunch of containers across a few machines?

My point is, it's overcomplicated and abstracts too heavily. Too smart even... I don't want my co workers to define our own resource types, we're not at a google scale company.
