So your point is that once you learn how to use the tool it's easier to use the tool? Also, what is a k8s engineer? What's the difference between this engineer

  > So your point is that once you learn how to use the tool it's easier to use the tool? Kubernetes is not just "a tool", it's a platform. So if you know the k8s fundamentals, being dropped in an unfamiliar environment should not be a problem. It's the same as knowing your way around a Linux system, you might not be familiar with that specific distribution you're thrown into, but you should be able to explore the system and figure stuff out. > Also, what is a k8s engineer? What's the difference between this engineer and a "devops" engineer? This and software engineer? Any engineer who claims to know a bit more than the basics of k8s? It being a software, "devops", SRE, "platform", ... engineer doesn't really matter, I've been labeled all of the above. I'll never claim k8s is perfect, I have plenty of issues with it, but very few of them are an architectural problem, and I've yet to encounter a platform that attempts to address all the issues k8s does. But you seem to be very critical of it, so what would you propose as a viable alternative?
