I'm afraid k8s would become like git - it's a great tool out of which we mostly use like 5% of it's complete capabilities, yet we all use it because everyone is using it. Yet, k8s doesn't really make all the underlying stacks go away. When the shit hits the fan, you have to troubleshoot it with knowledge of much more than just YAML syntax.
I admit to being a little frustrated with systems engineers telling me I should never need shell access to a production system again, that web-based Metrics and Tracing should be enough to debug all problems. I have twenty years of muscle memory using strace, dtrace, lsof, blah blah blah to troubleshoot complex problems. Furthermore I'm only brought in when the problem is sufficiently complex. I understand that it should be a break-glass exception, but I don't want linux abstracted away completely.
