Do I even need istio?
Linkerd. I implemented Istio for the same reason at my first Kubernetes job. Comes with all the bells and whistles out of the box, but it’s all tightly coupled, as OP said doesn’t upgrade well. I’ve since realised “one tool for one job” is better. Linkerd for mesh and something else for ingress and egress. There are lots of options, I’m looking at implementing Monzo’s egress operator next time I need to control egress https://github.com/monzo/egress-operator.

Using NGINX service mesh increases Attack surface
I wrote this up as https://github.com/nginxinc/nginx-service-mesh/issues/75, but I'm thinking maybe I should write this up for the ingress-controller as well, as they are doing the integration.
