Interesting idea, but reality looks different. Everything underneath the PaaS layer becomes less and less important. With container engines it may be hard to see for most people yet, I have to admit that. But with OS and hardware you can see it. E.g. think about what OS you run your PaaS on. It doesn't matter. The only limit here is integration with Docker/Kubernetes. If these are available on the OS then it doesn't matter which one you choose. That's also why many people now start to use complete unmodified OS images that don't update individual packages anymore but the whole OS layer together or nothing. Then hardware. Would you say anybody running k8s has an advantage when running on a super computer compared to a cluster of hundreds of desktop computers? Probably not.
