I'm not missing the point. The OP was specifically talking about a k8s bug that wasn't a k8s bug at all. You don't blame Linux for a poorly written application. If the cloud providers choose to add a bunch of uncommon options that has no counterpart in k8s that's their choice. but it doesn't mean k8s is a magic bullet that makes it so you don't have to do the bare minimum to understand the cloud providers.
