This sounds like people try to compare K8s with what was before and sure, that all holds true.
You get all of this with serverless (be it with managed services or FaaS), with reduced (albeit not zero) complexity compared to K8s.

It's fine for certain use cases but you get the benefits of both worlds by just using a managed K8s service like AWS EKS.
