I’m probably failing to see the difference between Peugeot 208 or Renault 5 being involved in an accident. What insights could one expect from this info?

Aren’t you confusing “navigating” vs “driving”?

I am making an assumption. I assume that you mean the deployment. The deployment is responsible for individual pods. If a pod goes away, the deployment brings a new pod in. The deployment controls individual pods.

To answer your question: yes, you can simply create pods without the deployment. But then you are fully responsible for their lifecycle and failures. The deployment makes your life easier.

You haven’t asked any questions and haven’t made any argument. If you want to have a discussion, make an attempt at having a discussion.

The “if they don’t like it they can go and others will come” is the same populist argument Musk and Trump use all the time. Zero attempt at understanding why things are the way they are.

By the way, tell me where I throw insults around.

The main problem is, there was one guy in the cockpit.

I get popcorn and wait for more work coming my way 5 years down the road. Someone will have tidy this mess up and gen-covid will have lost all ability to think on their own by then.
