Given that the Dhall type system supports things that the other configuration languages do not, isn't it very hard to migrate to for a project like k8s?

I don't see how they could support something in parallel to Dhall, and still enable all the features Dhall provides.

Dhall does have many features that can still "compile down" to YAML or JSON (or some others, too). Depending on this target language, some Dhall features are unavailable.

I don't think OP meant Kubernetes is changing to Dhall, but that we'll see something like Dhall on top of Kubernetes YAML/JSON that catches on.
