You are mistaking my point here. I'm not suggesting you replace K8s with some other thing which does the same things k8s does, but that you build out a simpler/ easier to maintain solution until you need something like k8s. Many Many Many businesses can do just fine without the kind of complexity K8s (or App Engine or GKE) brings to the table.
There are a lot of businesses that will never have to deal with dynamic scaling, engineering autoscaling into those solutions is pointless. If you need that kind of scaling then K8r is fantastic. My point is a lot of people turn to K8s well before they need to or without understanding why they might need it.
