Actually Google knew at the time they "designed" k8s that Borg doesn't scale due to fundamental design flaws in it's basic architecture. Still they reused the exact same architecture for k8s.

Who wants to know the details of those scaling issues can google for the Omega paper.

The "proper"™ solution to those design flaws was implemented in Mesos (and to my knowledge nowhere else until now).

And yet somehow Mesos failed... sigh.

Because the market never chooses the most advanced technology.

It chooses the (perceived) cheapest thing with the best marketing. Always.
