I agree with k8s not being environment agnostic. It's most of the way there but your decision to run on GCP, AWS, or some other platform, can play a large role in decision making and k8s adoption. I feel like right now in particular development is weighting to make k8s more friendly on GCP probably because the GCP team is working really hard and they're using that momentum (and a lot of open source / conference presence) to keep that advantage going forward. I think minikube is a crucial early step in allowing at least agnostic development where a "professional" can then ease it into a cloud provider by turning knobs here and there. It'll probably stay that way for awhile but we'll see.
