But how many hours/days/years did it take you to learn how all the parts move before you became capable of setting something like that up within a few hours?

Anecdotally, stories of businesses abandoning entire cloud automation projects because they wasted weeks and never had anything to show from it don't seem unusual, so evidently a considerable amount of knowledge and skill is required to get value out of these tools.

I used K8s and serverless tech and while serverless wasn't as simple as some evangelists try to sell it, it was at least a magnitude simpler than K8s.

Even managed K8s, which removed most of the admin plane work with nodes, was still significantly more work to get up and running.
