I'm fairly certain the "understanding the stack" argument has been sufficiently addressed by Carl Sagan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7s664NsLeFM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7s664NsLeFM We're building abstractions so people can build on top of it. And yes, that includes trusting your tool. When's the last time you ran JTAG debugging on your CPU? Did you use a scope to verify it worked correctly? You should probably have a somewhat decent understanding of the layers close to what you building, but there are plenty of applications where deployment is far removed from what you actually build. That's where the "magic button" matters.

In the Apple Pie scenario, you'll find most apple pie enthusiasts can go down the stack a few layers. They'll talk about important aspects of the right flour, the apples, etc. In the specific case of opsolutely you're in a tight spot because there are several better abstraction options available than your closed source invite only tool. Kube and Mesos both offer better support and tooling and both have several options for an extensible and automated software deployment lifecycle.
