As long as there is no popular replacement for Helm, it will stay tightly coupled with Kubernetes. Not in a technical way, but in the way that you're always going to use it together with k8s. For now Helm is the only sane way to package a complex k8s deployment in a reusable way. Kustomize is great too, but quite limited in many ways.
