We wanted a supported platform to use RKE2 as our way to deploy, run and maintain a K8s cluster.

Talos isn't a supported option there.

While I in general like the idea of purging even more things from the OS and put it into containers, I don't really see the necessity.

Lately I saw a case study[k8s-based edge computing] of Roche; they created their secure local k8s environment with talos + omini.
