Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros

- I just run them on Talos. If a card dies i just replace it and rerun Talos scripts. Takes about five minutes.
- Alternatively, an immutable distribution such as Talos, or Rancher/Elemental.
Cons

- Talos is a bit different from the rest. Not only will you be working with kubernetes from scratch, you'll also be working with a read only operating system that you have no traditional access to.

I also saw Talos as answers, I had a good experience with it too.
Highly recommend Talos, and for the ultimate experience, Omni to orchestrate
