This was my stumbling block.

Nomad alone is clearly easier than k8s, and if it alone will suit your needs then you are in luck, but I didn't find installing and configuring 3 separate services any easier than k8s alone.

We had to add vault to our setup even if we use kubernetes - kubernetes secrets are a joke. We don't use consul, but managing istio, or any other service mesh, on top of kubernetes, isn't any simpler than running your own consul. (In fact, I have found istio to be a lot more difficult to get to do what you need than consul's service mesh, and with less functionality.)
