I spilled my coffee, I was just talking the other day to some coworkers how I don't trust google open source. Sure they open their code but they don't give a damn about contributions or making it easy for you to use the projects. I feel a lot of this sentiment extends to GCP as well.
So many google projects are better than your average community one, but they never gain traction outside of google because it is just too damn hard to use them outside of google infra.
The only Google project that seems to evade this rule that I know of is Go.
