Constant back and forth. Moving things closer increases efficenicy moving them apart increases resillency.
So we are constantly shuffling between the two for different workloads to optimize for the given thing.
That said i see this as an extension too the cattle idea by making even the kernel a thing to raised and culled on demand. This matter a lot more with heavy workloads like HPC and AI stuff where a process can be measure in days or weeks and stable uptime is paramount, vs the stateless work of intended k8s stuff (i say intended because you can k8s all the things now but it needs extensions to handle the new lifecycles).
