Its great. We use it. I'm not sure I would call it even close to battle hardened. They are still many lurking footguns and bugs. Try running it with > 250k tables. Falls down hard. Error logic around etcd/topo server is very sh

Those people are indeed hard to find. Individuals that write operators and/or know the internals vs just using kubectl and helm.
