Its not governed under the CNCF, so really, what Knative equals is Google lock-in.

That seem premature and unfair. KNative has representation from Google, IBM and Redhat, and the steering committee is working on a more inclusive governance structure.
(I have no inside knowledge of this - just what I have gleaned from slack ;-) )

What's premature (it has been around for at least a year)?
And why is it unfair to ask for open governance from companies other than Google and IBM (redhat is part of IBM)?

Pivotal is also on the steering committee.
Representation is based on contributions to the project, and Google has publicly stated that they look forward to not being a majority on the steering committee (when other companies have exceeded Google's contributions).
There are CNCF projects whose governance is entirely within a single company. I get that there's a great narrative here that "Google doesn't share", but it seems like Google is being held to a higher bar here.
