Yeah, lots of this article didn't make any sense. Especially with regards to Kubernetes.
Most of this seems like reluctance of new Google or "Beta" technology.
I tried my hand at Docker Compose, then Docker Swarm as "native" Docker solutions for quickly deploying scalable WordPress LEMP stacks. I would completely agree that neither of those are mature for this type of implementation, especially when it comes to persistent storage.
Kubernetes, on the other hand, is another story. As long as you stick to using Docker strictly for building your container images, then Kube literally takes care of everything else. And this is all coming from a strictly ops perspective.
EDIT: I would also note that Kubernetes docs are probably the best I've seen. They may be complicated, yes, so up your reading/comprehension skills and quit wining :)
