Without kubernetes you end up gluing a bunch of plumbing together anyways. It’s just that people don’t see the glue because they’re so used to it and learning something outside of that framework creations friction.

This isn’t so different from say Linux vs BSD. You can roll your own things and call it a system. Or you can just use something that targets a spec to provide a (mostly) cohesive and consistent layer to build upon.
