I’m not saying kube really fixes all of these problems or is a better solution, but it exists as a response to a crappy solution. in other words one problematic solution replaced another problematic solution. Stay in the field long enough and you see a pendulum where one kind of solution with problems is replaced by a different kind of solution with different problems... and then it swings back and a new general goes back to a new iteration of the first kind of solution and gets to rediscover the old problems again, back and forth over and over.
