Why Kubernetes Needs an LTS

I like the idea, and with something like say Chrome, this is excellent.

However each upgrade of k8s needs planning. Need to check through the list to see what APIs are broken, and figure out if anything needs changing, preparing for it, including stuff the cloud provider has chucked in the mix.

Probably to the point I feel like a cluster of clusters would be safer, so you can slowly roll it out.

Use multiple clusters for checking out upgrade path at least.

Plan regular upgrade so it's moved in small chunks and so that teams are aware of where they stand with APIs etc.

This is garbage path compared to controlled quantity. In 2008 no one would have countenanced this for good reason. What is the reason now?
