The best tools work at multiple levels and operator skills. Imagine a tool that can do everything from pound in a nail to launch a spacecraft. In an ideal situation, a carpenter can grab it and pound some nails and a rocket scientist can launch a Mars mission with it.

In the worst case, the tool forces you to learn how to launch spacecraft before you can pound nails.

In my limited experience (having twice now made attempts to get up to speed and actually accomplish something with K8s) it felt an awful lot like learning rocketry to pound nails. I may have had an entirely different experience if I had come looking to do a moon shot.
