If you use thing like package that has native component such as image processing you event need to setup some compiler on the VM - Deployment process - Load balancer - Systemd unit to auto restart it. Set memory limit etc. All of that is done in K8S. As long as you ship a Dockerfile, you're done.

I feel like you're simplifying things unnecessarily, all of the things you mentioned you still configure, except the configuration is now in YAML.
