that's because there are 2 kinds of complexity: essential (or intrinsic) complexity and accidental complexity. When one uses k8s when one doesn't truly need it, it's accidental complexity. However some problems require k8s, where the engineered complexity of k8s helps solving the problem at hand. Of course the issue is that most people don't need k8s, whereas Google and the like do.
