"But the real problem is Kubernetes." Yeah, that's true. Setting up full k8s with scaling, logging, prometheus, etc. for Wordpress(real example from Acorn) - that's definitely a sign you are doing it wrong. 90% of internet websites don't need k8s at all, docker compose covers all needs at very efficient manner.

Any website need k8s. Reliability, scalability, observability is needed by everyone.

K8s might be too hard to use right now. Too expensive for simple websites. That’s a problem we should solve.

Yes, that’s too expensive, so not for any website. And you can’t solve this.

Why do you think you can’t solve this?

Not me. I’m sane enough. You can’t sell Mercedes with price of Kia.

I don't see any particular difference between selling apache/php/mysql hosting and selling k8s namespace with managed monitoring/logging/gitops/etc. It's not a mercedes, it's the same shared CPU/RAM/Storage, just with different software. May be k8s is not ready yet to host completely different applications on the same cluster, but it just means that there's still work to be done for better isolation.
