Sure, this is kind of true, but only in the most depressing way possible. Kubernetes is overengineered and terrible but it's also just about the only game in town if you want a vendor-agnostic container orchestration system.

This is the same situation as Javascript circa 2008: "Learning this absolute dogshit language and using it widely will give you the ability to write universal applications that will run in browsers everywhere and make you very employable."

You're not wrong about k8s today, and wouldn't have been wrong about JS in the past, but boy is it a sad indictment of our industry that these things are true.
