Am I weird in feeling like the code in this file is really really... normal? Like, it's verbose in certain ways due to being written in Go, as well as due to not relying on any deep abstractions (and I don't mind this - abstractions are a double-edged sword), but in general, as code, it seems typical - and if the header text didn't exist I wouldn't think twice about the style it's written in.

Maybe the disconnect here is that most of my experience is in enterprise software rather than systems software. Perhaps many of the comments in this file seem unnecessary to regular contributors within the k8s project? Whereas if I were writing this same code in an enterprise (and thus expect it to be read by people far in the future lacking context on all the technical details) I would have put -more- comments in this file, given the sheer complexity of all it's doing.
