The kubernetes docs and code speak for themselves. If you actually think that it's clean, simple, well designed, and easy to operate, with smooth interop between the parts, I can't change your mind. But in practice, I have found it very unpleasant. It seems this is common, and the usual suggestion is to pay someone else to operate it.

First you were complaining that it was ad hoc and informal. Now you seem to be complaining that it's too formal and designed by committee.

Also I never said Kubernetes was well-designed, easy, or simple.

You say that as though bureaucracy is equivalent to formalism. It's not.
