Its not a garden. Gardens are horizontal with no dependencies between plants.
Infrastructure is a high rise building. Long term planning and careful maintenance is needed. And it shouldn't be necessary to replace the foundation every year or two.

I feel like software engineers who preach that everything must be connected to the internet and update from the mothership regularly are fundamentally disconnected from reality. If your design is robust to begin with you should be able to depend on it without constantly fiddling with everything.
this LTS hysteria is completely made-up
it benefits from updates every year, also who uses naked k8s (the hard way?), folks use a distribution with an updater
of course it's more work than simply applying the new charts, but the nice thing about k8s is that you can dump out the stuff from the working one, use k3s/kind/minikube, try the upgrade, and you are as good to go as with a dist-upgrade or similar.
Two words: companion plantings
Also, there's a world of incompatible plants. Some plants actively harm the growth of others, and some simply can't grow in the same place because of different soil and nutrient requirements.
That being said, you build gardens with soil and highrises with concrete. Kubernetes is soil, not cement.
