I work for VMware, so I am not disinterested, and of course we want it to be easy to use stuff we sponsor or contribute to.
But what exactly about stock Kubernetes and the fully-OSS-for-nearly-two-decades Spring Project strike you as "lockin"?
This is a bit like accusing Red Hat of lockin for shipping a Linux kernel.

With VMWare's Tanzu crap for containers and Spring native initiatives, the idea is complete lock-in in VMWare ecosystem from developer desktop to running service. The goal seems that no one should have any visibility on their own systems except VMWare consultants.
