Claim
Under 10 services, Kubernetes costs more engineering time than it saves
For small teams, the operational overhead of running Kubernetes outweighs its benefits compared to a simpler orchestrator like Docker Compose or Nomad.
Would be false if: False if a documented total-cost-of-ownership comparison shows Kubernetes overhead is equal to or lower than simpler orchestrators at that scale.

Managed Kubernetes (EKS/GKE) removes most of the ops burden described here β this conflates self-hosted K8s with K8s in general.
