Hi, from what I read the linkerd proxy allow to supervise response stats (latency, error rate). In kubernetes you didn't have global proxy stats. It's a circuit breaker and you can connect with other service with different protocols (http,rpc) without have to know what protocol other service use. I didn't have tested linkerd yet but I noticed this points. I think it's really useful when you have micro services

" it’s yet-another proxy in the neverending proxying of proxies within K8S already." - <3

I think it'd be nice to see the functionality of linkerd merged into k8s.

To be fair, most proxies are in-kernel in the form of *NAT.
