Genuine question. I'm not that familiar with Kubernetes. Can you explain the pain this solves? What is this winning at?

There is plenty of info on Kubernetes (K8s) on the web, so I would start there. As far as running K8s inside Docker containers though, the use case would be one in which you want to run multiple isolated K8s clusters on a single host. One way is to use VMs, but recently people are resorting to using containers for this purpose due to their ease & efficiency. It's in the latter that Sysbox really helps, because it's capable of creating a container that runs K8s easily and with proper isolation. Typical use cases are testing, CI/CD, learning. But I would not discount this moving into production use cases in the future as the technology matures.
