No worries! I use AWX with Ansible and love it. For this use case I think that is moving in the direction away from what I'm already using (i.e. more advanced). I don't think I need that level of flexibility when it comes to controlling the lifecycle of K8s nodes. Essentially what I'm looking for is something like managed K8s but leaning more towards the self-managed side to have some more level of control, e.g. easy swapping of the CNI or CSI. Another tricky thing is upgrading nodes, which kubespray has established playbooks for. Upgrading K8s via custom playbooks sounds way over my head right now, I can't see benefit in doing that (for myself personally, of course) over using the kubespray playbooks which are robust.
