If developers don't maintain their apps, it doesn't really matter that much how and where you deploy them. With Kubernetes, you just end up with unmaintained Docker images that potentially contain a ton of vulnerabilities.

Yeah but at least the fucked-ness is contained in the app layer and the infra layer can live in a happy and optimized modern world.

Also, intricate linkage between an app and the host OS also means there’s more work involved with upgrading.

But with a containerized app image you can reduce the blast radius of the poorly maintained app compared to running it bare metal on a host with other services. Also you can still maintain base images to patch/try to reduce vulnerability surfaces
