I feel like managed Kubernetes solutions are a completely different beast from on-prem physical deployments, and that when people talk about how Kubernetes isn't complicated, they are probably running a webapp on GKE or Minikube on a DO droplet, or something similar. Running Kubernetes on your own private, on-prem infrastructure - integrating services that live outside the cluster, exposing your cluster services, rolling your own storage providers, adding a non-supported LoadBalancer provider, managing the networking policies, etc., etc. - can quickly become an incredibly messy and complex endeavor.
